Arc'teryx Bora 80 Backpack - 4390-5000cu in
Made For the Long Haul
By Jimmy McNaughton
Ranked #575 - Weeklong Packs (Over 4500 cu in)
August 4, 2008
I've worn it for several days in Arkansas. It's heavy-duty, and a little heavy - ultralighters need not apply. Very well made. I really like the wet pouch, and the detachable lid is a snap to get on and off. The side pockets will hold water bottles, but be sure to cinch up the little bungees tight. They're really better suited for energy bars and snacks. You can pack a bunch of stuff in this pack, and it's comfortable.
