I bought this pack for a hike up Kilimanjaro carrying around 15-25 lbs. a day. It worked really well. I liked the adjustability and easy access. I got the L since I am 6'4, and paired it with a medium rain cover from Osprey which fit perfect. One thing I did notice is if you overload the hip pockets it creates a pressure point, so I had to limit these pockets to just a few items. I did enjoy that the side pockets fit a nalgene great and held it very secure. I beat this bag up pretty good this week and it held up great. Looking forward to more short overnights and day trips with it in the future.
