I don't understand why people criticize externals for being cumbersome and awkward.. WHERE are they trying to hike? A cave? The crawlspace under their house? Do they just have NO balance at all? My strategy is light and fast. I hiked 16 miles a day for 4 days with just under 40 lbs in this pack (Georgia AT), wearing a pair of Adidas and a pair of ankle socks. Didn't trip once. It's much more comfortable than any internal frame pack I've ever used. Sure, internals are more stable, but they KILL your shoulders. Besides, how much stability do you need, you klutz? :)
amen, friend. i feel the exact same way about my tioga 5300.
