Great Pack So Far
Bought this on sale to be a climbing bag, It's been better than expected. I took it up half dome cables down and it worked phenomenally, it carries weight better than you would expect and is pretty comfortable. It also has a surprising amount of room for a 35L bag, I can fit 1-2 night backpacking gear in this bag with ease. Stitching feels pretty robust, slick closure mechanism, and no shortage of attachment points. It's very easy to loadout and strap things onto this pack: generous compression straps, ice axe/tool loop, 2 zipper pockets (that use mostly internal space) 2x drawcord attachments, plus two handles means it'll work as a haul bag. Really wish it had water bottle holders, but I understand they are not common in a technical pack such as this. I got the S/M size, I'm 6ft tall but have long legs and short frame, this size works well for me (~18 inch torso).
