Clean, Simple, Comfortable

This is a great pack, I used it on Rainier and Whitney this year. Really clean & comfortable suspension and organization. Organization is simple in that there is none...which is how the guides who built it like it. A lot of them even ditch the top compartment while climbing. And sailcloth is a good idea...I haven't seen any other packs utilize this fabric which works great for packs cuz it's strong and light.
