Mountainsmith Borealis AT Camera Pack
Very good hybrid pack

I've had the Borealis AT for a year now, and it wears well, holds all that I need, and, has been very functional. I do not hesitate to take it out fully loaded, and have not had difficulty with debris and moisture. I really like the size, as I often carry a single pack for a day long hike for my wife and I. The top section is a good size for extra food and clothes. The pack is well padded and I've had no trouble carrying it onto airplanes.
On the negative side, it is a bit heavier than I would like, and the tripod carrying arrangements are clearly for a larger tripod than I like to take.
I have done quite a bit of backpacking, and while this pack is not suited for that, it is easy to tell that Mountainsmith is well experienced in making very functional, comfortable packs.
