GoLite Perspective Backpack - 3950cu in
The Trifecta
By Donner Party
Ranked #1694 - Weekend Packs (3000-4500 cu in)

Good capacity + reasonable load-bearing ability + very light weight, it's the trifecta. Some people think this pack accommodates more gear than it can comfortably carry, making it impractical (or downright fallacious) but I haven't found that to be the case. The suspension was surprisingly sturdy; the hip belt doesn't look like much but it's well-made and bears up good under 30+ lbs. It's the perfect short-trip and/or summer trip pack; when you don't need to carry heavier, bulky shoulder-season necessities like sturdier tent, more clothing, heavier sleeping bag, etc., you can haul a surprising amount of stuff a long way in comfort with this pack.
