Perfect

Ranked #933 - Weekend Packs (3000-4500 cu in)
December 15, 2008
I used this pack to hike in for a basecamp type trip. 8 miles in and with about 50 pounds (7 days). It was overloaded but showed no signs of wear. Created a hotspot on my lower back. But that was probably bc it was overloaded (or my pants). The hike out with less food was perfect. I liked it so much, I bought the womens version for my wife. We both wore them into the grand canyon, down to the river and back out. They were great. The pack sits away from your back in the middle, and allows for fantastic cooling. It was definitely appreciated in the canyon. It is cooler than wearing a camelback.
