Osprey Packs Talon 44 Overnight Backpack - 2600 cu in

Depending how lightweight you go, the Osprey Talon 44 Backpack is large enough for your overnight trip or your weeklong adventure. This sturdy but streamlined Osprey backpack is ideal for ultralight backpackers, adventure racers, and anyone who appreciates a functional, lightweight pack. Comfortably carry up to 35 pounds in the Talon 44, with its fiberglass stays that allow for excellent load dispersion and control. Access the main compartment from the top or the bottom of the pack, and stash anything you want easily accessible—jacket, trekking poles, or water bottles—in any of three stretchy external pockets. Put your water bladder (not included) in the external hydration compartment. Put energy gel packets in the harness pockets and energy bars in the hip pockets. The padded back panel has air channels, so air can circulate and cool you off.

Bottom Line: Hit the trail for a day or a week with your lightweight and rugged Osprey Talon 44 Backpack.

Great for traveling!

I did a lot of research before choosing a pack to take on a 10-day trip to Italy. I originally purchased the Osprey Ariel 55, but decided it was too big to take on trains, so I opted for the smaller Talon 44. It was really the perfect bag for the trip. I packed light, but I fit several pairs of clothes, bathing suit, a pair of sandals, a guide book, fleece, rain jacket, towel, toiletries, sleep sheet, bowls, and some food it in and had tons of room (probably a third of the pack space) leftover. I don't think the pack would do well with a lot of weight (over 25-30 pounds), but it was comfortable for the 15 pounds that I had in it. If you use a hydration bladder it goes outside the main compartment, between the back panel and the inside of the pack, so you have to put the full bladder in before you pack to get the best fit. The mesh, zip pockets on the hipbelt are a nice touch. The hipbelt, while not removable, is smaller on the small/medium pack than the medium/large. I tried on the medium/large and I couldn't get the hipbelt tight enough, but the small/medium fit well. (For reference, I'm a medium torso and a small hipbelt with the Osprey Ariel.) I don't think I would have gotten away with carrying the pack on the plane, but thankfully the airline didn't lose it, so no worries there!

is there a compartment where i can safely stow away my camera?...

is there a compartment where i can safely stow away my camera? it's an SLR cam w zoom lens (not those small pocket sized digital cams) and hence, it's quite bulky. padded compartment available?

The pack doesn't have any padded compartments. I'd suggest a padded bag separate for your camera and just pack it inside the pack, unless you're jumping on it or flushing it down a river it should be fine on summer trips. Maybe add one of the roll top sil-nylon bags for waterproofness if you like.

I like this pack

When I first got this pack I was not sure about it-it kind of has a funny shape. However after using it it (Hut to Hut-no tent or bag), I think it is great. It rides really well, the most important attribute. The only funky things are the buckles, which seem whimpy and are; give them a good pull and they will snap in two

good stuff

I've taken this pack on several week-long trips and it is a perfect size. Its possible to stretch about 4 days out of it if packed light and correctly. It was easy to attach tools to the outside with the pulls and stretchy pockets. The padding and durability of the shoulder straps would be the only downside, as they are very minimalist. But then again, that's what this pack is for.

Osprey talon 44

I recently completed two tramps in New Zealand. The Milford Track and Routeburn Track .The Tramps were 5 days and 3 days respectively. The pack was laden with 12kg and was a breeze to carry.Being 5' 6" tall I chose the small size which proved so comfortable on my back, hips and shoulders.The pack design fits comfortably to the contours of your upper body.I like to "jog test" a pack and there was no appreciable movement against my body momentum. The pack is light weight and easily coped with the 12kg. Awesome pack highly recommended

The day pack to rule all

I am in love with this pack! I worked on a trail crew in the Uinta mountains in Utah. I needed something that i could stuff in my big Gregory pack and pull out for use on day hikes and what not and this was perfect. It doesn't even feel like you are wearing a pack and it fits so much stuff. I highly recommend this pack.

I use this pack for almost everything! I can throw my climbing rope and gear in it. I use it for day hiking, over nighters, traveling, mt board gear. I have stuffed it full of camping gear and clipped and cinched so many things to the outside as well. I have put a cold camelbak in the back compartment and it offers extra cooling on my back. It is extremely comfortable and the breathable back on it is fantastic in the summer. I have had lower back surgery and have it fused now. It is hard for me to find packs that work well with that and this one and any other osprey I have used has been amazing on my back!

Talon 44

This pack is great. I just finished a mission trip in the Baja Peninsula. The trip was finished out with a 10.5 hr. hike in the Sierra Mountains. I carried 20-25 lbs. mostly water, cliff bars, filter, and sleeping pad. The temp. was 100-104. I hiked 45 km. The pack worked great, awesome fit, and the airspeed design worked great. I highly recommend this pack. I didn't get any rub marks or chaffing from the straps. Due to the pack design there was plenty of air between my pack and my back.
