This is the pack I used while guiding in Colorado for 14 weeks two consecutive summers. After multiple trips in the back country this pack has withstood harsh conditions and braved the elements. The only thing I've had to adjust was the hip belt, but fortunately they are detachable and I down sized from a medium to small belt. The fitting is awesome and the pack wears like a glove. There is plenty of space and I've carried snowshoes and ice-axes with ease. Great week long pack and one I plan on keeping for a long time!
