Love this pack. Packs small enough for day trips or a day of patrolling but as a minimalist, I can cram enough gear into it for a three day tour! The avvy tool pocket is ingeniously designed to allow easy access to the gear you need right away. Side zipper pocket gives easy access to skins. Ski sling design is awesome, even for fat skis, although sometimes a little wobbly when doing any seriously climbing. Love having the integrated Avalung as it's so much more convenient and comfortable than the stand alone Avalungs. Only thing I'd do to improve this pack is put a pocket on the waistbelt.
Enjoy,
Miles.
