I'm a 65-year-old backcountry skier and every onze of weight is an issue. The Backcountry Magazine featured this pack in their Nov.08 issue and quotes the weight as 2LB 12OZ. This ad says it's 3LB 10oz. What's the truth??? They are both 32 liters big.Thanks for some clarification, Ingrid

The pack you saw reviewed that only weighed 2 lb 12 oz was the Outlaw pack without the AvaLung. That's where the extra weight (and $100 in price) comes from. If you need the added safety of the AvaLung it should be worth the extra weight and cost.

i have a 7 1/2 lb. Dana Design summer pack. Too heavy? Yeah, I'd say so, but somehow, it makes the rest of the weight, weightless! The point being that it's not simple math.
