Is this intended to replace the Bora 35? Also, what do we think of lichen?

Thanks for the information. One follow-up, though: Isn't this actually heavier than the Bora (1200g versus 1100g)?

I wouldn't say the Arc'teryx Axios is a replacement for the Bora, but maybe a bit of an evolution. Lighter, way cooler on the back with the spacermesh,and breathable shoulder and hips. The fabric is lighter, and not quite as tough, but still durable. The packs carry really well. As for lichen, I didn't like it at all when I first saw it, but after seeing it a bit, I think it's a really cool color that's got good vis, but isn't overly bright. And, it's pretty unique- I'm giving it the thumbs up. BTW, it's just a bit less bright than the image makes it appear.
