REALLY GREAT PACK

Dakine definitely nailed this one. This is a great inbounds pack. It really does have a fleece GOGGLE pouch, which works great by keeping moisture and scratch makers away from your spare goggles. This pack has the best hydration system there is-- even better than my Black Diamond 32L Avalung. It's insulated and easily accessible because the zippers are very smooth to open and the mouth thing doesn't move around more or less than you want it to. The Black Diamond is great, too, but always takes two hands because of a tough zipper and improper compartment sizing. The bladder is just the right size, too-- you don't really want more than 70 ounces on your back even for a full day at the resort. I say stop by the water fountain during the day once or twice for additional thirst. The main compartment is perfectly sized for an extra layer, lunch, camera, wallet, keys, etc. Another thing-- this works better than a bigger out of bounds pack because it doesn't have all these loose straps hanging everywhere on your back, that inevitably tangle with the lift chairback. Also, this works better than a fanny pack, too, because fanny packs look so lame. Great work Dakine! Thanks for not making one great pack and for not making fanny packs!
