A Backcountry Must Have
By Dave Madsen
Ranked #24 - Daypacks
May 25, 2011
I have always struggled between either using the undersized top pocket waist pack off my big pack or packing in a seperate pack when headed into the backcountry. This pack has solved that problem completely. It carries well and I found if I throw my thermarest lite seat (http://www.backcountry.com/therm-a-rest-lite-seat-camp-chair#review_200110152) inside along the backpanel it makes it even more comfortable. I can't think of very many trips that I won't be bringing this along, in turn it is a must have.
