DAKINE Pro 2 Backpack - 1600cu in
Great all around pack

I just picked this pack up from SAC and I am pretty stoked so far. I bought it with the intention that it would be a multi-use pack. I needed something for school, small day hikes and ski season. The diagonal ski carry system is pretty solid. I don't know how it handles while actually in the back country, but I am expecting good results. There is enough room for quite a bit of gear, plus stuff can be strapped on the outside if necessary. The hip belt pocket it a great addition. Holds my point-n-shoot well and it fleece lined so I don't need to worry about damage to it. I used this to day hike humphreys in Northern Arizona and it worked out better than expected.
I'm looking forward to the winter so that I can load the skis up and take the pack for a real spin.
