The North Face Primero 85 Backpack - 4880-5200cu in
5-Star Pack
By Michael Facciolo
Ranked #252 - Weeklong Packs (Over 4500 cu in)

This pack is, simply put, great. I love it. It's big yet light, has tough fabric yet fits comfortably, and it has the reliability that I'm used to with TNF products. This pack is very, very water "resistant". I hesitate to say "waterproof" because if you completely submerge it, it might leak. Maybe. All in all, if you want a great pack for long trips, this is the pack for you.
