Kelty Haiku Backpack - 3000cu in
Just when you think it can't get any better
By babe in the backcountry
April 20, 2004
I was very skeptical of the design of a "women's pack", but after one weekend trip, I was sold. I usually have fatigue in my hips from the weight of my old pack, even after just a few hours. I thought this was the norm for a woman and hiking. Not the case with the Haiku pack, it is made for those of us with curves. I can honestly say I forgot I had it packed and on, it is so lightweight (with room to spare). I can't imagine going on my next trip without it.
