Great pack. Just used one on a four-day, rim-to-rim Grand Canyon trek. Plenty of room for tent (Big Agnes Seedhouse 2), sleeping bag and pad, stove and fuel, food, snacks, water (3 1L bottles), clothes, sandals, and camera. Weighs about six pounds empty. The pack has a great suspension system, with an adjustable lumbar support and cinch straps to pull the load forward, off your shoulders. Carrying about forty pounds (including water), I had no problems with back or shoulder soreness. Bought my own as soon as I got back. No hesitation recommending this pack.
