Great pack used it this season ice climbing in CT, and Vermont. Easily held puffy coat,hardshell,helmet,water bottle in parka, rope,screws,harness,snacks,binocs,heavy gloves, ice gloves,thermos,slings,camera,carabiners,axes(danglers a little wierd but work fine),and crampons(in kangaroo pocket).The wieght was fine, even traverseing up the side of smuggs.I have also used this pack for a couple overnighters, and can fit my tent,sleeping back,stove,thermarest,EZlite,water,food and extra clothing. Mind you this is a little overloaded,but worked fine.If your wondering about durability, I had to carry my girlfriends pack down about 200 feet of near vertical snow, and chucked this pack down it!! you would never even know. So if you need something this tough its worth the money.
