Nice roomy pack for day hikes. Has cushy comfy straps for carrying loads. The beefy zippers are great for use with gloves on winter treks. It opens up really wide too, which is nice when you're fishing around the bottom looking for your rain pants etc.
It sucks as a ski pack though: The compression straps advertised as "spaced for ski bindings" sort of work but the suspension of the skis creates interference between skis and calves (ouch!), especially when hiking _down_ a slope. Also, it's wide enough to limit arm range-of-motion while skiing, especially for skinny guys like me. Best used as a hiking or climbing summit pack.
