Kelty is probably one of the most underated pack manufacturers out there, and this pack is no exception. I originally bought it as more of a day pack for toting books at school, but I've wound up taking to the trails quite a bit with it, leaving my North Face and Lowe Alpine at home! The aluminum frame conforms to your back and can be removed to be used as a rucksack (why would you want to?) Compression straps are smart and well spaced. The hip belt is heavenly (TNF, please follow Kelty's example!). In all, I would say this is an excellent pack for short spring/summer/fall hikes where no huge sleeping bags are necessary.
