Light is what it is

With out question, the lightest backpack I've ever owned. Good and useful pockets on the top and the main compartment holds plenty for a quick climb or excursion. Compression cord collapses the pack perfectly for light loads. It's even got an external clip for an ice axe or whatever...
What this pack is not: substantial, heavy -duty or load-bearing for heavy loads. The straps are mesh—literally.
My only real complaint is that the plastic clamps that hold the shoulder straps don't hold very well, so the pack comes un-adjusted. the straps are smooth and small like little ribbons and they slip away slowly as you hike. lame. knot the straps so it doesn't slide to far down.
