I like this pack alot. Very nice suspension that fits even the long torsoed. But the belt leaves a bit to be desired. Its nearly non-exsistant. And i feel that if the designers thought a pack of this size should have 2, burley aluminum stays, then they should've given it a belt to match. Heavy loads with this pack tax the shoulders after even short distances. Im keeping it as it has found a place in my arsenal of packs. Its great for short jaunts with a fly rod plus boots waders and 2 boxes, and snow shoeing with lunch and a layer or two. But wieghted down, it tends not to feel so good. Its nearly perfect(for me), and the things that I do with it. And with a bigger belt, it would be my go to pack most, if not all the time.
