"a damn good pack" - Review of Arc'teryx Khazri 35 Backpack - 2441-2746cu in

but then, i'd expect nothing less from arcteryx. the khazri is exactly what they advertise: a fast and light minimalist's alpine pack. however, arcteryx still managed to squeeze in a few essentials like a removable back/bivy pad, a 4-buckle completely detachable top with two center oriented zippered pockets (one top, one bottom), loops for attaching 4 ice tools, and a crampon (or other gear) holding elastic strap system on the front of the pack. the straps have minimal padding (with the option of a simple webbing waistbelt) but still carry 35 pounds quite comfortably. also the gear loops on the waistbelt are a nice touch for racking screws while leading with a pack. altogether, definitely the nicest pack i've ever worn. oh yeah, if you are 5'10" or over, go with the tall.
