I can put my touring skis in the side & strap the tops together & snowshoe up areas that are tight to tour up. I did have to add an elastic to keep my shovel on the back bottom piece, but that works great now. I love the mesh back to keep my back from sweating. lots of room, I am very happy with this pack
Spot on!

When I saw this pack online, I was disappointed to find that NO sporting goods stores in my area had one in stock, so that I could give it a rigorous fondling in person. But, since your site has always been a breeze to work with, and you could get it to me in two days (for FREE!), I decided to give it a whirl, since I had a little mountain adventure planned without the appropriate pack.
When I opened the box, I was THRILLED with the overall look and design of the pack, but after having taken it on it's maiden voyage snowshoeing, you would have to tear it from my cold, dead hands to get it away from me.
It's a great size, EXTREMELY comfortable to wear, and wonderfully adjustable.(And did I mention that it's gorgeous?) Living in the Pacific Northwest, I know the time will come when I will need the extra slick integrated rain cover, and although I hope never to need it, the chest clasp that doubles as a safety whistle is a smart touch. The shoulder straps are molded perfectly for the female physique and nicely padded for comfort. I am 5'8", my torso length is 20.5", so I got it in Large. Loving it!

I'm keeping this pack simply because it fits so well. I'm not a fan of the compartment layout - I liked the Black Diamond Pulse better, but it didn't fit at all. I wish the Sirrus had that outer stash pocket on the back, and bigger water bottle pockets on the side. Stuff in the top small pocket gets caught up when you try to put a hydration reservoir into the sleeve. I bought this pack for longer day hikes, and now I use it even on short ones because it rides so well. The mesh back panel keeps me from getting too sweaty, and the weight balances nicely. Ultimately, comfort is what matters, and this pack is very comfortable. I am 5' tall, 113 lbs, and I got the small.
ETA
Four months later and the organizational layout finally irritated me enough to return the pack (thanks to backcountry.com's generous return policy!). The buckles to get into the main compartment were hard to operate with mittened or cold hands, and I prefer more organizational options.
I found (here) the Mtn Hardwear Wandra (another mesh-backed women's pack with a raincover) that has better access to the main compartment, more external pockets, and that lovely stash pocket on the back. It also has a system for carrying trekking poles across that back that is an improvement on the under-arm thing the Sirrus has going. I look forward to using this pack on my upcoming trip to NZ!

Does anyone own this bag in aquamarine? I like the color of it on this site, but the same bag on amazon and rei have a completely different (but similar to each other) tone... it's like a blue/grey and not so bright like the one seen here. What color is actually right?
Kate Williamson

The aquamarine color is closer to what is on Amazon. Amazon has it a touch dark, but it is no where near as fluorescent blue at it is here on bc.com... Sorry.

I've used a small camelback pack that allowed me to carry the essentials and a liter of water for the past few years. After purchasing an Osprey, lets just say I'll likely never purchase a camelback again.
I purchased this pack to do a couple of long dayhikes where it was necessary to carry more water and snacks on the trail.
The pack fits nicely. I actually have a shorter torso for my height, but the larger size fits better for this pack. It's comfortable, and I love the ergonomic hip belt (nice to be able to adjust as I add/remove layers)
I love how I can carry everything I need for long dayhikes, or I can use the straps to compress the pack size making it less bulky. I also attach plenty of things to the straps that I either want quick access to (like my microspikes, hat, etc.) or at times I need my snowshoes but not the entire trip I can strap them and leave them hanging on the side.
There are plenty of pockets, and on my short day hikes, I don't even use all of them. On longer ones they are great for stashing granola bars, crackers, etc. I often use one of the side mesh pockets to carry an apple, orange or another piece of fruit as it seems to survive longer there. The Nalgene bottles fit in the pockets, although it is hard to place the bottle back in with the pack still on your back.
The one thing I don't like about the pack is the trekking pole attachement. Perhaps my poles don't fold up small enough, but I'm not a fan of having the poles right underneath my armpits. If I'm not using them I'm fine with either strapping them to the back of my pack, or carrying them in my hands.

Love the look, love the comfort (the back support is amazing), love the size. The perfect day pack for my 11 month, 11 country backpacking trip!!
Good day pack

I bought this Sirrus 24 Backpack for a trip day hiking in Switzerland and it definitely met my needs. I am a 5 ft. 2, and it is hard for me for find something that fits my frame, but this pretty much did (it was still a bit large). I loved all the pockets; I had a place for my paperwork (tickets etc), for my sunglasses, for gorp, and the main compartment was great for extra clothes and lunch. It was actually the perfect size for day trips. Also, the women on the trip thought it was nice looking (in purple). I would certainly recommend this backpack. Also, the guy at Backcountry who I e-mailed with was helpful when I picked it out.

How do I know what size to get? I am 5'5" but have a somewhat long torso. Is the pack adjustable?
Ryan Hamilton

Always best to try on a backpack. You're probably a medium.

The frame is not adjustable but there are many adjustments on the pack to help with the fit. I would think a Medium would fit you fine.

Go get measured at any store that sells them. The size is based on the length of the top of your hips to your c7 , I am 5'6.5" and I need a small because my torso was 17". You can't really just go by your height.

This is a great bag with lots of great features. However, it would never adjust to touch my back. And the colors are what a man might think a woman would want. Still, I would have kept it had the bag lay flat against my back. I think it's because I am quite petite and don't have much "meat" on my back. I'm not muscular in the back and shoulders.

I like it - I'm 5'6" and I bought the medium and it fits well and I like the adjustments you can make. The color is really, really off in the photo - I the pack I got is a green color and not the nice blue that it looks like in the photo. I like the back of the pack - it really helps keep your back a lot cooler than any other pack I have. I hike with 2 Rat Terriers and I have lots of room for their water bottles, (one on each side) snacks, coats and first aid kit for me and them.
