Price Paid: $199

I wanted a pack for weekend trips and lightweight week long trips. This pack fit the bill perfectly. I was also shopping for a lightweight pack that holds a lot of weight if I ever want to cram in an extra treat. This pack filled that void as well.

I was debating between this, the Arc'teryx mid size range packs and the Black Diamond packs. I went with the Z55 for its weight to max load ratio as well as storage space. The waist and shoulder straps fit comfortably and the easy access made this a no brainer.

For those looking for a pack for long day hikes, I use this for 10 hour day hikes with 3 meals and my DSLR camera and I still have space. Winter gear may change my opinion but I would recommend this product.
