Osprey packs are amazing but this pack is a POS. The model isn't bad, the new atmos packs are very good, but this years model is a bust. Large aluminum frame(I'm 6ft tall) dug into my shoulder blades regardless of the adjustment, some crazy uncomfortable straps that also dug into me neck. I've had 5 different osprey packs and I would give them all 10/10, this one deserves about a 3/10. Really no idea how this got through ospreys design team because it's just awful. Go out and buy the osprey talon instead, best...pack...ever.EDIT: I forgot, the back mesh panel basically traps all the heat inside like a small greenhouse because when the backpack is against your back, there is not a single place for the warm air to escape unlike the newer models. Ya, I'm not exaggerating on that. I am convinced that anyone who thinks this is a good pack has never tried on anything better than a school backpack. Oh, and good luck fitting 2300 CU IN in this thing...even if you somehow did, with the lightest equipment you could find, it would still be to much weight for the straps and frame.
