Great pack
thegooddoctor
Member since
Pros: Comfortable
Good air on the back
Great, sturdy fabric
Plenty of room - that is compressible
Cons:
Side pockets are unreachable (at least for me) while it is on
Only one hip pocket
I had the opportunity to try this on before I bought it, and that saved me from spending more on a less comfortable pack. As soon as I put it on I knew it was the one. The adjustable harness gets it sized perfectly and will allow me to hand it down to my son when he gets older. Would be even better if their was one more hip pocket and if the H2O hose opening was of to one side - it tends to poke me in the back of the head right where it comes out of the pack.

Can I ask are the top of the shoulder...
Rick Vizcara
Member since
Can I ask are the top of the shoulder straps fairly wide apart as I am a bit of a large chested broad shoulder guy. Many of the packs I see are made for skinny lanky guys although they may be tall their shoulders are not as broad as mine. I find most packs the shoulders straps a bit narrow on me cutting into near my neck muscles as apposed to riding more on my shoulders themselves. Could any one give me a measurement of the shoulder straps distance between the two straps at the top? Greatly appreciated.
Is the sleeping bag compartment separate...

Is the sleeping bag compartment separate from the main compartment?

yes, there is a zipper allowing to open and close
Great Adjustability
BzBrian

My father uses this pack, but I have no shame in borrowing it either. This pack can fit a very large range of bodies. It's very adjustable and much easier to do than say, my Osprey Aether 70 (awesome pack). I would say that this pack is just as good as my Aether 70 but for a lot cheaper. I like the hip-zip-pocket on this bag too.
However, one of the straps did rip off on the first trip. I'm not sure if it was Dueter's fault here or mine, but I'm not too upset.
Very Comfy

This pack fit great (I'm 6'1, athletic, and used the second-to-highest setting). It was really easy to adjust, and the sleeping bag compartment made it really easy to get to items at the bottom of the pack. The feel was balanced and the padding made me barely notice my shoulder straps.
This was the first Deuter pack I've carried, and I'm definitely a fan now.

I took this pack to Phillmont and for those who arent fermilliar that is a camp for boy scouts. I did an 11 day 70+ mile trip and this pack continued to swallow anything i put in it. I lova the fact that the lid is soooo huge it allowed me to put in the things i needed quickly. The pack stood up to the harsh beating that a neglectfull teenage boy would throw at it. The one single thing that broke on it was the tiny little buckle on a strap that compresses the top of the pack down. i was yanking at it to try to shrink down my load. It snapped but only on one side of the buckle. I had to tie it the entire trip. The big problem is that the buckle is hard to replace and the strap is a weird size so many replacement bucles dont really work. Other than that FANTASTIC pack.
Where do you strap your tent and sleeping...
Louie
Member since
Where do you strap your tent and sleeping pad on this pack? I just bought this pack and am looking for straps on the bottom to lace my sleeping pad and tent, but there are no straps? Please help...
Christopher Minguez
Member since
Usually strap mine on the sides on a pack like this, Louie. I roll the poles up in the sleeping pad and roll the tent tightly in a long roll and strap them on both sides to balance the weight.

I really enjoy the feel of this pack on the shoulders and lower back. The vari-quick system is crazy simple and, well, quick and is the easiest adjustment system I've seen on a pack. I wish there was more room for gear for longer trips, and it's harder to stuff a thicker sleeping bag in there. The whole design of the bag is very streamlined, with hardly any material bulging out beyond the shape of your torso. Very nice for tight trails and 4 to 5 day trips.
