"Yup, this pack is "absolutely huge!", as the ad proclaims. It also is the most bang for your buck in internal frame backbacks out there! (Thanks Campmor!) I promise, you won't need another pack after buying this one! Lots of features, lots of pockets, LOTS of ROOM!
Sleeping bag stuff area will hold a bag AND your tent! Two side compartments hold my 2 cans of Bluet fuel, stove and spare H2O."

"My dad originally bought me this pack when I was heading down to Ecuador for the summer. I loaded so much stuff in this pack it wasn't even funny. I then used it on a 5 day in the southern sierras and later a buddy used it on a 3 week trip to central asia."

"Great pack for a great price. I bought my Alaska in 1998. I have yet to hit the trail with it, but I carry my shoppings in it. It is very reliable and comfortable. Padding is excellent, but the hipbelt used to widen during long walks; a little ingeniousity solved this problem."

"I got this pack last year for about $100 from Campmor, and just got around to using it. I bought this pack to carry large loads, or other people's gear (such as spousal gear). As others have stated, the pack is comfortable, all the pockets and storage space is great."

"This was a bargain at the original price of $190 let alone the sale price I got it at. I have gone on several three-day winter camps with plenty of stuff packed in this pack and I have always had plenty of room left. This is a great pack that is very adjustable, very comfortable, tons of space, tons of pockets, and seems very durable."

"This was the first pack I bought since my Boy Scouts days, when I was using a Kelty external frame. As the company's description says,"this pack is absolutely huge!" and they mean it. It will hold everything you would want to pack inside, safe from dust and snags."

"Good pack. The sleeping bag compartment is large enough for a sleeping bag and a tent. The only thing I've had go wrong with this pack was the frames coming out of the velcro slots."
