Here's what other sites are saying:

From CampSaver.com:
"Mountainsmith Maverick Pack 3900 cu in"

From Backcountry.com:
"Just because you're roughing it in the backcountry doesn't mean you don't need to be organized. Taking everything out of your pack just to find your trail map or rain jacket costs precious time-not to mention the patience of your fellow hikers. Mountainsmith based the Maverick Recycled Backpack's design around organization and efficiency, so you can focus on the 2000-foot ascent ahead instead of wasting time rummaging through your bag."

The Mountainsmith Maverick ~60L pack is a solid pack for the weekend warriors of the world! It encompasses the bare essentials for those living on a budget yet offers the space, watertightness, and comfort of a slightly more expensive and technical bag.

I got a good deal at Sierra Trading Post and love this pack. I used it first for a weekend climb up Mt Greylock with my 11 yo daughter. It carried everything we needed and then some for a weekend trip and has a convenient setup with the pockets. It took a bit to get it adjusted just right but one there it was very comfortable.

I bought this pack about 2 years ago. . . it was my first backpacking pack. For the price, it is a wonderfully capable pack. I've used it mostly for overnighters into the Italian and Japanese backcountry.

The construction is very good for the price.

I took this pack on several overnight trips and one 32-mile trek, that was enough for me to realize that I needed a new pack. The pack does not move with you, it hurt my shoulders, neck, back and hips, weight is not easily adjusted. This pack has lots of features, but is not a comfortable pack for extended trips. I did like that the top detached to a lumbar pack.

Took the Maverick out on a weekend outing during a horrid rainstorm in the Clifty Wilderness in Kentucky. I would have given the pack a 5 out of 5 except for there was a very little dampness that was on the inside of the pack. Now granted, I did not use a waterproof pack cover and we had some of the worst rain Kentucky can have.
