The North Face Terra 40 Backpack - 2450cu in

Pack your gear and a just-in-case sleeping bag in The North Face Terra 40 Backpack. The North Face's suspension system adjusts to fit your torso length, and an open-air mesh trampoline across the back panel keeps your back cool. If an overnight stay is part of your plan, zip your sleeping bag into the lower bag compartment. Pull on the Terra 40 Backpack and tighten the hip-belt to transfer some weight off your shoulders. As the day heats up, take off a layer and stash it in the front stretch pocket. When you stop to enjoy the view, secure your trekking poles in the pole-loops so they don't tumble off the mountain.

Bottom Line: The North Face Terra 40 Backpack carries gear for a long day on the trail and a sleeping bag for emergency overnights.

I have to say, considering the name on this bag, you get way more than what you pay for with this bag. Excellent storage. I just got back from a weekend in Colorado and took everything I needed for my four day trip. I could even carry it on the plane! Plenty of room for everything you need. My only problem was that the water bottle containers were too small for the likes of a Nalgene or one of the Backcountry.com bottles. They would fall out if I bent over too far. But, the adjustments were easy and the pack fit great. No rain cover though.

Hey all! I'm very interested in the Terra 40 or 60 for weekend...

Hey all! I'm very interested in the Terra 40 or 60 for weekend camping (3-4 day). It seems like either of these packs would work. Any other ideas for a weekend pack for 3-4 days, holds sleeping bag, same amount of room, but also has a break away pack for hiking? Also, what are your thoughts on TNF Extreme 60 backpack?

Does the trick!

This is a great pack for anyone who is looking for something that is durable, adjustable, decent amount of room and that is very comfortable. I recently got to use this pack on a 4 day camping trip. I am someone who packs as light as possible. I prefer not to even bring a tent when I camp, and this pack made it for me. The only down side I found to this pack was the weight. It is almost 4lbs for a 2450cu in pack. I currently also have the GoLite Pinnacle pack as my ultralight backpack and the weight difference is pretty amazing. But, besides that this is a great pack. I would highly recommend it for anyone who is doing overnights or maybe a weekend hike (depending on how you pack).

This is a great overnight pack. I love to use this on short overnight stays, or this is also great for some traveling. It is amazing how you can fit into this pack. I how so much space to use. This is much better some other overnight packs that I have used. One feature that is really nice is that the sleeping bag compartment. It is great to use for you sleeping bag, but also it has a removable separator so you can also pack it with clothing for those longer travel day. Also it is pretty light weight and has great shoulder supports that keep you cool.
