I purchased this pack about a year ago and have enjoyed using it. If your trying to go lightweight, this pack will help you, It's SMALL, but very usable. I can carry about 4 days worth of gear and food (tarp, quilt, alcohol stove, single cook pot, etc). I've got about 150 miles on it with no problems. the waist belt/side pockets were pretty useless so I took them off, shoulder straps provided enough support. The front pocket is huge, tarp, rain jacket, spare long sleeve shirt and socks, first aid kit. The main pocket carries my quilt, sleeping pad, light jacket, food, etc. The 2 side pockets carry a platy or Mt. Dew bottles with ease, Gatorade bottles are a tad big. You do need to stop and think about what your bringing. Very well made pack.
