I bought this pack last week and just got back from a 2-day backpacking trip in central Illinois. What an awesome pack for the price! holds a ton of gear and really doesn't look that obnoctious when fully loaded. Got rained on for about an hour on saturday and everything in the pack stayed nice and dry. I bought the large because I am about 6 ft tall, have a 34 inch waist, and I have a long torso for my height (22.5 in). It rode very well on my back and did a good job transferring the weight to my hips. I had it loaded with about 30 lbs. (packed for comfort, not worried about weight) that ioncluded my water and food. Hydration packet worked well. A great value for a 5500 ci pack that weighs under 4 lbs, seems VERY durable.
