Osprey Packs Talon 22 Backpack - 1200-1300cu in

Rating for this product: 5 April 27, 2007

I bought this pack for adventure racing. The weekend after I bought it I did a single day "medical" adventure race where you had to carry a lot of extra gear. The pack accommodated my stuff as far as space is concerned, and the design of the pack allows for easy carrying. The compression and load adjustment straps keep the load secure and close to your body eliminating bounce. The hydration bladder actually hangs from a hanger in the hydration sleeve, which prevents the bladder from bunching up at the bottom of the pack when it starts to empty. The back ventilation is comfortable, as are the waist belt and adjustable sternum strap. I have also started using this pack for mountain biking just because it's more comfortable than my smaller hydration pack I've been using for biking. I've also been wearing this pack and flipped a canoe, and my gear inside the main area stayed largely dry. All-in-all, thoughtfully designed bag that is perfect for day hikes (maybe even an overnighter, although I haven't tried that), long trail runs, mountain biking, and adventure racing.
