I originally bought this bag as a haul bag for multi-pitch lead climbing. However, as soon as I unpacked it I realized this was no haul bag. The boxy shape and zipper-flap access do not lend well to accessing and dragging gear around the crag all day. Additionally, the pack straps are not accompanied by a waist belt. This makes hauling the loaded beast a bit of a task - not ideal on challenging approaches. After deciding to send it back and opt for the Metolius Quarter Dome, I realized the Huey makes a great general gear bag. Bomber construction, easy access, and tons of room (100L). So, I have decided to keep the Huey as a bomber duffel and get a climbing-specific bag to tote my rack and rope around in.
