This pack is outstanding. The ability to open the pack entirely using the side zips is something I wish could be incorporated into everything. I use it for stashing my gear and heading out for a climb, but for pretty much everything else in my life. If you're like me and you just stuff clothes into a bag for a weekend trip or if you're staying at a friend's or relatives for a while, you'd love this bag. No more pulling everything out just to get at a pair of socks or my pyjamas!
For climbing, it works great. The gear loops on the inside work perfectly for holding quickdraws, the tough bottom of the bag and the PU coating make it perfect for just tossing my rope in there (it also fits packed up into my rope bag - just need a little creativity). I only wish it had ice axe loops! That would make it absolutely flawless.
The roll-top is easy to use and nice and secure. My only gripe is that if i'm riding a bike it definitely knocks the back of my head (or helmet)...so not to be cycling with!
