I think Marmot has taken a great Dana Designs name…
Rating:
Design: internal frame---top loading b/c of small zippers
Size: 7000 cubic inches
Number of Pockets: 4
Max. Load Carried: 60 lbs
Height of Owner: 6' 00"
I think Marmot has taken a great Dana Designs name and put it on a pack that is clearly sub-standard. The padding on the back is practically non-existent, the suspension causes most of the weight to rest on equally un-padded shoulder straps. Worst of all, if you are buying a 7000 cubic inches pack, you probably would like to be able to fit your sleeping bag into the bottom. The size of the zipper is ridiculous. I'm sending mine back.

Marmot designed the Astralplane Backpack, at 7000cu in, to carry an absolutely massive amount of gear on large-scale expeditions. As the largest offering form Marmot, this expedition pack takes you out for the long haul. The Astralplane Backpack's supportive Arc Flex frame uses a combination of aluminum and carbon fiber stays that transfer the load to your waist, taking the burden off your back and making your humongous load easier to carry. Make the Astralplane fit like a glove using the Custom Fit back panel, shoulder straps, and waistbelt. This mammoth Marmot pack also has two front pockets to aid in organization, and a removable lid that converts to a lumbar pack when you head out for a side trip from base camp. The Marmot Astralplane is ideal for mountaineers schlepping big loads up Denali, but any backpacker who is going out for less than three weeks should stay clear.
