This is a 5 for me. It's a great light backpack. I wouldn't say that this is an "ultralight" pack, but it's light enough at approximately 3lbs (medium).

I've packed this for various 30+ miles-3 day hikes and it's proved to be great thus far. It hugs on the body very nicely-the pack was so comfortable that I could hardly feel the weight. The only downside on this pack is the way it curves. Also, it's a toploading pack (so are most ultralight-light packs). It's tricky to pack, however I like it. I'd rather have it that way than to lose its breathability on your back. That is also another plus. The back system is so nice because it breathes so well.

Something else to add. It is 3000cu in.,however there is so much room in the backpanel and side and top that it doesn't feel like there's a lack of space.

I definitely recommend it for people who are into light backpacking.
