Love it!

Ranked #402 - Weekend Packs (3000-4500 cu in)

I've been training for an AT NOBO thru-hike, and I can't tell you how much this pack has totally rocked. Sure, there are bigger packs out there designed to carry heavier loads, but you're not going to want to carry over 40 lbs on a hike like the AT. With a week's worth of food, 4 liters of water, all my equipment and a compacting chair, the pack weighs 38 lbs.
