The Slipstream is a good pack for overnighters or a light three day trip. It's also a good pack for long dayhikes or summit attemps. It's a pretty comfortable with a heavier load (30 lbs) and real comfortable with a lighter load. The 2 ice axe tubes are nice for the larger ice axes as well as the waterfall ice axes. These tubes allow me to get my ice axe without taking off the pack by reaching behind the pack and releasing the buckle. The top comes off very easily and can be used for a fanny pack.
