The North Face Pivotal/Catalyst 60 Backpack - 3700cu in
Awesome

October 12, 2004
After two back surgeries I thought I'd never be able to seriously backpack again. After endless research I gambled on the cost and I must say it was worth every dollar. I try to keep my pack at 30 pounds max. After loading up and utilizing all the different straps and torso adjustments I found this pack not only seemed lighter and more comfortable but the pivotal suspension allowed me movement a regular pack would never afford me. This makes all things possible again for me. Thanks North Face for an awesome pack.
