So much, so light! This pack has a lot going on... pockets, strap configurations, confort features... its got it all. I appreciate the mini sleeping bag compartment at the bottom of the bag. I hate it when I have to pull everything out of my backpack to get the items that I want at the bottom. I also like the stretchy pocket on the front; it fits my climbing helmet really well. I've used this pack for a few months now for carrying around climbing gear from crag to crag. Its looking pretty dirty, but its help up really well.

Simple, Light and Functional Light weight durable pack with lots of versatility. Great for day hikes and short overnighters. This packs simplicity makes it easy to use with just the right amount of accessories. Functional pockets on the hip belt offer quick access to a snack without slowing down the pace of your hike.
