"ok, standard features" - Review of The North Face Borealis Backpack - 1850cu in

this backpack is ok if you're a city person trying to look like you're a hiker/backpacker. but if you actually hike, bike, or rock climb like i do, you'll want to make use of every possible feature on your backpack. the borealis has the features of a standard daypack, like the side water bottle holders, the small front pocket, and the laptop sleeve which is nice. also it is very comfortable on the back and shoulders. however, the organizer in the secondary compartment is no good because if i put a lot of little stuff in the pockets it makes the whole thing sag. and the bungee system is a joke. it's too small to fit anything securely. i am going to sell this to my sister and buy the hot shot, which has a daisy-chain on the front for clipping things to. by the way, get the "first ascent" version. it's cheaper.
