Great pack! I've been a Jansport owner for 25 years. This one has lots of room and lots of features that more expensive packs have. Took it packing for the first time for a two day trip... it felt great carrying a 35 lbs. However, I did have some trouble with the waist belt wanting to twist and get caught in the buckles while trying to cinch the waist belt. It also could use the old style handles on the external frame.

Happy in the Klamaths
