The Arc'Teryx Quiver Backpack gives you easy access to your skins, probes, and other necessities during light-and-fast backcountry descents. The Quiver's unique three-point, single-strap design spins around to put the pack bag and zippered opening right in front of you. A main compartment and outside zippered pocket hold your gear, and a hydration sleeve secures your precious water. A small waist-belt keeps the Quiver close to your body when you hit the steep and deep.
Bottom Line: Keep a quiver of gear with this pack.
Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

Your best bet is probably a quiver, they're great for holding arrows. Sadly, I don't think Backcountry carries any quivers.

In the winter I volunteer to be a snowshoe guide for 4th graders. Easy trips, on the level, duration about 1.5 - 2 hours. What I needed was a small pack to hold visual aids: not just photographs, but also perhaps a beaver pelt and skull, or the lower leg of a deer. One of the other guides has this backpack and recommended it. For me, it's ideal: very secure, quickly swings round in front to be accessible, has two compartments so that I can keep my materials sorted out, and has just enough capacity to do the job. Much better than a conventional backpack (has to be taken off and put on the snow), or a fanny pack (too small). But it's far too small if you need to carry a lot of gear for more ambitious trips, or carry a DSLR camera and lenses.

Held my shovel and probe no problem along with my sandwich and a drink. Never even knew I had it on when skiing. Exactly what I was looking for. Only complaint is I wouldn't mind it being a little bigger.
Can I use this for School? I'm interested in a sling bag
Can I use this for School? I'm interested in a sling bag that won't bounce around when I run, but can also carry my textbooks. I usually have one textbook, a five star notebook, two reading books, and a small notebook in my bag at once, along with a graphing calculator and my agenda. Will the quiver hold all of this or should I look elsewhere?

You could put all that in there, and it will be pretty full. I've hiked,skied, run and biked with my Quiver and it works really well. Perfect for travel, too. The hipbelt is the key to it staying in place.

I love this pack. The wife and I use for travel, work, and day outings. Perfect for skiing. Im considering buying another for patroling.
I'm really liking to ergonomics, look, and size of this pack.

It is perfect for my netbook, but my full size laptop doesn't fit.

I've carried my 14" lappy in my quiver, but if you've got a bigger screen, it gets tight!

Great pack if you travel light

This is a really high quality bag. The three point system is particularly useful for situations where you are going to be moving quickly. If I pull the straps tight, I can do a cartwheel and barely feel it shift. Also, is it very water resistant. I have been using it for cycling, and none of my stuff got wet at all after a 30 minute ride in medium rain.
The bag is, however, very small. I tend to pack light, but if you are used to filling something lile a northface borealis, this bag will take some adjusting. It also poses a bit of a learning curve for your body, and it took my left shoulder about two weeks to fully acclimate. Overall, great bag for climbing, cycling, day hikes, and city use. I would reccomend it to any friend.

The Quiver has a lot of potential. Unfortunately, for me, I couldn't get used to the the unique 3 point strap design. I thought about returning it, but, my son "borrowed" it and he loves it. The only thing we added was a sleeve for his laptop. Other than that it's become a part of him.
