I like to run/hike with extra weight on my back so that I get a better workout. So I was wondering if this pack is big enough to fit 4 to 5 - 1 gallon water jugs into?
Thanks for your time

I have the North Face Recon, which is slightly smaller. As far as cubic inches, it could hold 5 gallons (1155 cu in) easy, but that would be if there was the only compartment and the gallons were to take up any shape. I would say 4 would fit, 5 would be pushing it. When dealing with gallon jugs you have space that is wasted on on the handle and such, if you were to use a more bag like (pliable) container, you could get the full 5 gallons. Other options would be filling the jugs with sand or taking along actual weights. This bag was not designed for carrying such heavy loads. Although structurally it could take it, I would not recommend it. The pack doesn't have enough structure to adequately distribute the 30-40lbs you would be carrying and still be comfortable. Consider a small internal frame pack, just a suggestion.
