Arc'teryx Borea Backpack - 2750-2990cu in
A very GOOD re-design

This version has the biggest improvement in design, the side pouch is big enough to put in a thermarest and tools. The kangaroo pouch is weden so that shovel can go in and out easily.
The little thing that i didnt like is the 2 cord stops they used at the upper closure, i can see why they want to put the flat pull-string stops rather the simple traditional ones., but it just does not work, but $2.00 can fix it.
I used to have Bora 40 , and previous version of Borea, this version shows the versatility and nice choice of fabric.
