"It is what it is." - Review of GoLite Pinnacle Pack - 4500 cu in

The GoLite Pinnacle Pack is what it is. It is an ultralight backpack for people who actually practice ultralight principals. If you have a "normal" size tent and sleeping bag, find something else as this won't fit. I found the 4,500 cu/in size a little optomistic and the long version wasn't as long as other packs I've tried. It is made well, but it has no frills and doesn't appear willing to take a terrible amount of pounding - then again, how often do any of us really sling around a backpack instead of treating it as if we had the world on our back? The top cinches tight, so plan on figuring out ways to keep the contents dry if it rains.
