"This has to be one of the best packs that I own, it's the most versitle pack of the bunch! I use it four seasons, hunting, snowshoeing-skiing, climbing and hiking. From the backcountry in Yellowstone, during a 11 day geological field school excursion, to the Mojave the versitility is amazing."

"I have owned this pack now for close to 5 years, so this is an old model. I have hiked over 500 miles with this pack and I feel it was definitely worth the price. You really appreciate this pack when you put on the weight and hike long distances. I have used this pack in the northeast and in the Colorado Rockies."

"Good pack! I've used it for everything from travel to day hikes to lugging books and photo equipment. Suspension was a bit tricky for someone my height, but once it's set the pack is like skin. Straps are a bit much, but once you find your way around customizing the fit everything is much more simple."

"I have had this pack about 5 years and it is not the latest model (no pouch for water bladder). The pack is very comfortable once properly adjusted and has stood up extremely well in use all over the U. S. The size is perfect for winter day trips I often throw in a sleeping bag and pad for safety since I hike alone."

"After reading mrc's review of his bugaboo, I felt compelled to write as well. My bugaboo is about 6 years old and still in great shape. I have used it everywhere from Florida to New York and west to Utah. It has performed well in all conditions."

"I bought this pack last year in sale, so this review does not apply to the '97 - models. You still may be able to find the pre-97 packs on sale. New 97+ models are $140+. I love the fit of this pack. Leaves lots of room for elbows and arms, yet holds enough equipment for day outings and light overnights."

"Reading the other reviews, I realized I'm going on nine years of using my Bugaboo on almost a daily basis, and it's in just about as good shape as when I bought it. I have used it biking, book-carrying, and for carrying up to 40 lbs of groceries from the supermarket."

"This pack is very comfortable to wear, especially if the suspension system is set up right. One thing that I love about the Bugaboo is its suspension system. Even though it is small, it still has a full suspension system that you would find on a expedition pack."
