A big miss

I am surprised that Arcteryx could miss so badly. This pack is way too short and it sits very high on the back. The straps are also too close so the pack does not hug the back properly. The roll closure with the zippers is a neat idea, but the extra hardwear kind of gets in the way and the roll closure does not work as well as it used to work on the older RT series packs. Overall, a step backwards for Arcteryx.

For all folks that are bigger than, say, 5'8", consider the Miura 30 for a much better fit due to torso and shoulder harness length.
