So if your lookin for a pack to haul your gear, your friends gear, your friends grandmother and your favorite bouldering problem around for any length of time look no further than this pack. It isn't light, and never pretends to be but I'll sacrifice a little weight for a comfortable freight hauler. The thick and wonderful hip & shoulder pads & frame design plus DWR zippers/material and standard Arc'teryx durability make for a great piece of gear. And the kangaroo pocket is awesome for wet shoes & socks that you don't want to put near your other stuff. I enjoy this pack.

This pack is amazing! Everything he said is correct. I have had it for 4 years and still have had no cons. I love the water bottle holders on the side that allow you to get your bottles easily while hiking, the sleeping bag holder on the bottom is huge, and it has straps on the bottom that allow you to carry a tent or other bulky objects.
