REI Venus Pack
The Venus Pack has been discontinued. If you're looking for something new, check out the best expedition packs for 2024.
The pack has many good features, but lacks some of the features the newer versions ('06 and '07) carry. This one does not have a hydration reservoir - it has always been difficult for me to figure out the best place to carry my bladder in it. I love the top and front access - the front accesses an area that is convenient for sleeping bag carry. The '05 model also does not have a daisy chain on the outside. The number and location of pockets is great and the entire pack is easily adjustable and very comfortable.
I used this for a week-long trip in the Grand Teton area and had no problem carrying everything I needed.
