Gear Review
My wife loved this pack!

Me and my wife trekked to La Verin Creek in the Kolob section of Zion National Park with this pack. I got a demo of this pack to let her try out and she loved the fit, the torso length, and the chest strap. It held everything she needed and she said that it was nice how the storage was set up on it, how the hydration ran out of it and that you could convert the top part of the pack to a lumbar pack that the waist belt comes out of the main pack to wear heading up to Kolob Arch. She said that this was an A+ pack and wants one now to head out with me with. Gonna have to get her one for sure!
