Fairly Functional

Ranked #326 - Overnight Backpacks (2000 - 2999 cu in)
March 4, 2009
Just the right amount of pockets. Too many straps/clips. Great exterior crampon pocket. Fits nicely. Lots of ways to stabilize it and make it comfortable.Nice ice axe strapping system. It accomodates the newer curved technical tools very well. All in all a solid performer.
