Best bag for light trips

September 5, 2006
I just hiked up Mt. Blanca in Colorado this past July. This was the first trip using this bag, and I was just amazed how it performed. I was able to keep a sleeping bad, half a tent, food, and all my other gear and still had extra space. The North Face really made a high quality product when making this bag. I will have this bag for the rest of my life. The rain fly that comes with the bag is an added bonus that most bags do not come with. My girlfriend used that Akila 40 and loved it as well. She was able to put all her gear in the bag and carry the other part of the tent without any problems. I recommend this bag to everyone.
