Versatile Pack & A Smart Buy

By Ranked #56 - Daypacks - Technical October 2, 2008

This is my everything pack. I can stuff my laptop in it, with 3 school textbooks, calculator, and all sorts of school materials, then later on take it all out and throw in my climbing rope, harness, chalk, hook up my quickdraws, hook up my climbing shoes, and still have space at the top to hold my wallet and camera and other things. There are two open pockets on the inside: one is against your back and can hold your water system (there is a hole on the top of the bag where the H2O tube can feed out of) while the other is on the side away from your back and can hold random items. The top flap has a zipper on the inside and out, the storage space in those would be appx. 2 regular size sandwich bags pressed back-to-back. Only two downsides: the compression (cords) system can show early signs of fraying (I've had mine for almost a year now and the compression system is still intact). The second is that when your pack is full its difficult to fit a bottle in the side mesh pockets, solve this by litening the load, throwing your H2O in the pack, or taking out your H2O pouch in your Camelbak. II will buy the same pack once i tear this one up from using it so much.
