Great suspension, hip belt pockets, a sleeve behind each side pocket allowing you to secure long items easily into the water bottle pockets, front access panel, and tons of ways to compress your load make this my favorite pack I've owned as well as the most budget friendly.

Thanks! It's really frustrating how they often don't show what the back looks like. For me, that comfort counts quite a bit!
