Simply awesome, after doing "light" overnighters consisting of no less then 25lbs for several years, I had a revelation. You dont NEED 75% of the crap most of us insist on carrying. I went out to the Trinity Alps in early April for 2 nights with nothing more then could fit into this little 26l monster and the bear can strapped to the top. I had more fun and covered close to 20 miles both days with NO discomfort thanks to this little guy.
If you are looking for a lightweight pack for approaches or bagging summer 14ers then look no further, pack smart and you can go a few days with this little guy!
