If one were to be going ultralight (base packweight of 15-16lbs), how many days do you think this could be good for? Is there anyway to increase the distance between the straps? Thanks for the answer Jon, you are an indispensable resource. Just one more question; when trying on the pack (empty) I felt it was a bit tight around my collar bone, almost digging in. Anyway to adjust that?

Babak Sakaki. With all the added features that are bullet pointed in the content you could probably take this for 5 days or more. There are probably ultralight folks out there that could push it even further than that... I mean it is almost a 60 liter pack. Depending on how minimalist you want to go the options are limitless. Good luck.
