The pack sounds perfect for the 2 day hikes I'll be going on in the Adirondacks. In the description it says the zippers are waterproof... what about the pack itself? Very important to know...

The pack itself is nylon, and is not waterproof, but either are the zippers to be perfectly honest. "Waterproof" zippers are very water resistant, but not 100% water-tight. These types of zippers and pockets will help keep gear like your cell phone or wallet from getting soaked in a sudden rain shower. That said, I'd recommend a pack cover for a truly waterproof solution.
