Osprey Packs Argon 110 Backpack - 6713-7079cu in
Best Pack 'o' the Year!

This is the best pack I've owned. I went into the retail store of backcountry.com and tried on about everything. It came down to this pack and an arc'teryx. Hands down this pack was much more comfortable, plus it has a bunch more accesses and compartments than the others. I Nikwaxed it with the UV waterproofing, not that it was necessary but I'm anal! I've been on a bunch of long trips with this baby and the more I use it the more I love it! What a great pack!

The post above is from my brother Steve, Last summer after our summer trip I picked up his pack and threw it on my back after hiking 7 miles with my old pack and I nearly cried. The Argon 110 certainly doesn't feel like a 7100 CU pack. You would never have known he had 15 pounds of Beef Jerky and Kashi bars in that beast:) Now I have to get one if they ever come back in stock!
