Good all-around daypack...

I bought this pack because my other daypack was not long enough to use the waist belt to distribute the weight to my hips. This pack has a torso adjustment that allows you to customize the fit. The 28 does not have any type of internal frame, but it is not needed with light loads. The water bottle holders on the sides are not quite deep enough for large bottles, but it is hydration compatible. It will carry skis (A-Frame) with no problem.
