Osprey Packs Kestrel 38 Backpack - 2300cu in

The Osprey Kestrel 38 Backpack includes all the features you need for a plush day of backpacking or climbing, and it holds just enough gear for an ultralight overnight trip. The Airscape back panel pads your back and keeps you cool while a peripheral steel rod increases support for heavier loads. Osprey used low-profile stretch-Lycra front and side pockets to create extra space when you can't get everything inside the Kestrel 38 Backpack. This bag also includes an integrated rain cover for wet-weather hikes and Osprey's Stow-On-The-Go trekking pole attachment system to free your hands for a bit of scrambling.

Bottom Line: The versatile Osprey Kestrel 38 Backpack handles nearly any day on the trail.

Yes it does, well, it has a zipper at the bottom of the pack with no divider between the bag storage area and the upper part of the pack,NF Terra has the same set up but with the divider which should have been a part of this packs design.

Boughta a Kestrel 38 a while back. It is everything Osprey says it is and more!! I have the medium/large and it has 2300 cu. in. For me it is a bit too large for a short to mid day pack, but if you are going to use it in the summer time and you have all of the lightweight other small gear, it is a wonderful 2-3 night backpack. Or a great "off season" day pack? I loaded it up past the recomended weight capacity and it did not know the difference one bit. I expect this pack will keep on impressing me each time I use it? Very well thought out with the options Osprey added, and probably the best well made pack I have ever owned? including a couple of older Osprey's that I have!! This Kestrel 38 pack amazes me with the options it has and the quality of the materials and functionality compared to it's price? I would easily pay twice what they are priced at to get a pack this good. Absolutely no regrets. Buy One.
