This is the best ultralight backpack ever! It came to either this pack or the granite gear vapor trail. My 2 friends have the vapor trail and I like this pack way better. I hiked over 10 miles a day, for 4 days straight through rough mountain terrain and my load was carried very well. My pack weighed about 25-30 lbs. The waste belt has mesh zipper pockets so I store power bars or granola bars since the bars flex with the pockets around my waste. The big mesh outer pockets are great for storing extra gear that you’re too lazy to put in your pack. I keep my rain jacket and map there for easy access. Also, if I have any wet gear the mesh pockets allow it to dry while I'm hiking. The 2 water bottle pockets are deep and held my 1-liter Nalgene bottles very well. The harness and straps that stabilize the pack are the only kind I’ve seen like it. When you bend and twist your torso the harness at the bottom moves to adjust the load better and gives you more flexibility. Also, this pack barely weights anything compared to other packs.
