I've been using this bag for 2 years. Don't wear it everyday, but it is super useful for accessing inbounds backcountry (i.e. hiking relatively short distances with your skis) and also short day trips (Tuckerman's Ravine). I use the integrated hydration system pretty often as well, but days that I am at smaller resorts I typically use a Camelbak Zoid instead to minimize bulk. This thing has taken a beating though and has held up incredibly well. I've taken it on 4/5 trips out West (I'm an EC skier) and have skied 50+ days with it in the past 2 years and all the functional components of the bag work as they did on day 1 (although it could probably use a wash!).
