I have a 7 day pack that is about 25lb. My Gregory pack was looking a little flat and empty! This pack holds all my stuff and weighs a few pounds less!
I liked: The suspension system which was very comfortable and easily good to 30lb and I liked the compression setup.
I disliked: It is hard to load as the extension gets in the way. The solution is to fold it over the pack inside-out. The pack lacks pockets but the external pockets work well. I use an MSR bladder in the pack’s hydration pouch and don’t put 1l bottles in side pockets. I ordered the Granite Gear “top” for the pack after my last trip.
Yes, I would easily buy this pack again given the chance. It may just be the pack made for me!
