Osprey Packs Talon 33 Backpack - 1900-2000cu in
November 11, 2009
Osprey makes great packs and it should last you the two years and be a great bag for hiking once you get home. Make sure you wash your hands and bag straps often, the dirt from handling the straps will leave brown marks on your shirt no matter what bag you choose. Get a hydration pouch too, its nice having water always on you. Good luck and have fun.
