Load it up with your tent, sleeping bag, and sleeping pad for weekend trips during the summer. The HDPE frame sheet and aluminum stays effectively transfer the load to your hips making it easy to carry 30 to 40 pounds.

"Works great for my weekend trips, but if you are going for more than 2-3 days, you will need a larger pack. You will need more space if you are going somewhere where you will need to bring extra layers. Other than than, I really, really like it."

"I've had this pack for a year and a couple months. I bought it to take with me to Bali for 12 days. It held everything that I needed for the trip. I was staying in hotels so I didn't need to pack a tent or sleeping pad/bag, etc. Just a water purifier, clothes, toiletries and a camera."

"I have recently purchased this pack. I am happy with it, but there a two things that would make it a great pack.

I wish it had some external pockets so that I can carry small frequently used items.

As well, I would like a zipper that runs the length of the pack so that I do not have to take the top off to access the pack."

"I'ved used this backpack for probably a year and have found it suiting for weekend backpacking trips. It is very comfortable to hike in and has room for all the essentials but little extra room. I've had trouble finding places for a tent and a groundpad in this backpack."

Reviewed by Andrew, Nov 06, 2005

"This is an overall decent pack. I've been able to haul a couple days of gear in it no problem. It's a little on the heavy side though (4 lb, 6 oz). It's a pretty comfortable pack when hauling like 35-40 lbs, but really is not for the ultralight (to many nonessential things) and is too small for a weeklong pack."
