My favourite pack of all time, this thing is BOMBPROOF! Being just a day pack it lacks an internal frame but at least the stiff foam backpad makes a satisfactory barrier.

Several bicycling accidents on paved roads have proven to me that this is one tough pack and I can say that although I first winced at the $100 price tag, I am now a true believer in the North Face products. A front daisy chain and compression straps on the sides and bottom provide ample lash areas and the 2 front pockets are big enough for water bottles if you can't fit them in the water bottle pockets on the side.
