As of 9/27/09, the Dakine website is incorrect in stating that the Heli Pro 20L has an insulated hydro sleeve which was one of the features that was on my must-have list. The Dakine website incorrectly provides information not for the Heli Pro 20L but for the Heli Pro DLX 20L including gallery photos. This is not Backcountry's fault but be aware in case you research manufacturer's information as well. Debating on returning this at my expense to get the DLX version.

i am right with you on that wrong info stuff... i planned on all the goodies that the DLX had since that was listed under the HP 20L...cable for the bottom of the ski carry... insulated sleeve...etc .etc. other than that...nice pack... just what the doctor ordered for front side and ... had i known, i would have spent the extra $10 for the DLX.

Seems to be corrected at the Dakine website now. I´m a bit surprised that backcountry don´t stock the 20L DLX version though. They have several improvements like the cable ski carry instead of just the strap..
