Outdoor Research DryComp Summit Sack

Outdoor Research DryComp Summit Sack

Rating for this product: 5 May 27, 2009

I've had this now for over a year. Initially bought it for the idea of having a stuff sack for packing soft goods when traveling and simple, no-frills day pack for quick climbs. (I'm not a regular boater. I did use this on my one and only sea kayaking trip for clothing. Two day trip. All stayed dry.)

Man o man, if this bag has not turned into something else! I still use it to pack clothes in all kinds of travels. It has served as a summit pack and a light day pack. I pushed it to the absolute limit on a volunteer re-bolting effort and hauled it with extra batteries and bolts up a 90 ft of sandstone. It did pick the mesh a bit on the outside, but this has never progressed to unravelling and remains fully functional. The size is generous. The compression straps are ingenuous in that they double as an ultralight waist belt. The multiple daisy chains on the outside allow you a lot of low profile options for hooking the Summit Sack up with more stuff or to a primary load.

This piece has really filled a niche for my gear stache. I guess the tell-tale recommendation comes with "If anything happened to the bag, I would replace it despite cost."
