Black Diamond Bbee Backpack - 732cu in
Black Diamond Bbee pack
By California hiker
Ranked #589 - Daypacks
July 3, 2006
I wanted the smallest, lightest pack I could find that would store the biggest load that I want to carry on a day hike -- viz. sandwich, juice box, apple, sweater, windbreaker, keys, wallet. The Bbee is the perfect size. The Bbee is basically just one bag that zippers at the top. Within this main bag, there is a pouch for hydration bladder and a small pocket for keys and wallet. The pocket has its own zipper and a key clip. I selected the Marigold color because I've learned that a light color (like yellow) captures more light within the pack, making it easier to see and locate items at the bottom of a pack. My only criticism has to do with the zippers. Because the pack is so light and insubstantial, one has to hold the pack down while operating the zippers. Only way to fix that, I think, would be to make the pack heavier and more rigid. But then the Bbee wouldn't be the very light pack that I wanted.
