Hey Mkd, I've currently got my bag packed with a 20 degree synthetic in a large Sea to Summit e-vent compression bag, a two man LL Bean microlight tent, clothes, and all cookware into this bag with half the top section empty for food. The key to using this pack is unzipping the center divide then packing your sleeping bag into the bottom with clothes filling the empty spaces.

Yes this is a good sized pack for a weekend trip. Look at the pics I posted of the pack, it shows all the gear I packed in and also got in 3 days of food and some other small items that were not pictured. Maybe Jeff Gerhard packed a synthetic 0 degree bag in no compression sack and a 8 man tent. I cannot comprehend how he couldnt fit any other gear in his pack.

It might be manageable if you split up the tent between you and a partner or you go ultralight in the summer.

This all depends on how & what you pack. If you plan on packing a sleeping bag & tent, you can forget about most anything else!
