I love this pack. It doesn't haul a lot of weight but when packed lite it hugs your back and you probably won't notice it is there. I've had to travel through thick huckleberry patches off-trail with it on, which I could never had done in my old pack. The weight stays distributed wonderfully.

The airspeed design against the back is great; it feels like you are lying in a hamock. The aluminum frame that creates the airspeed pocket, though, does encroach on your packing room so you best have your system worked out. I just hiked 25 miles with a bear canister and it faired rather well; I could have used a little more space with the canister, though. I realy love the pockets on the hip belt, too. Perfect for a compass and maps, sunglasses, or a snack. So, to conclude, I love this pack!!!
