Billed as a mid-sized, full-suspension pack with the day-hiking capabilities, the Mountainsmith Ghost 50 Backpack is just as excited about an overnighter as it is for a fast-paced weekend sojourn. At under four pounds, lightweight fanatics will find plenty to love, and thanks to the sturdy Breezeway back panel, heavier loads won't feel like a chore.
- Breezeway sling back suspension system maximizes air flow while evenly distributing weighted loads to the hip belt
- Reverse-canted waist belt optimizes load transfer across your hips, and the DeltaWing compression adjustment lets you dial in precise comfort
- Lumbar Control Point pad prevents the pack from digging into your lower back when fully loaded
- Air-flow shoulder straps feature lightweight padding to disperse the load
- Side waist belt pockets, zippered front panel stash pockets, and trekking pole attachment points help you keep your kit organized
- Dual mesh water-bottle pockets and an internal hydration-bladder sleeve let you choose your favorite method of retanking
- Reflective details help keep you visible in low-light situations
Bottom Line: Supremely versatile.

I want to give this five stars...

I have the old Ghost, and being a fan of it, and someone who suffers from a sweat soaked back even on the coldest of days in the most breathable clothing possible, I was stoked to get this pack...
However; the waist belt is just too damn small. I wear a size 36/38 and with the waist belt I can just BARELY cram it shut, thus making it pretty much worthless. Four more inches would have saved the day... I'm going to try and find some SR buckles and make an extension...
