Glad this pack exists; wish it was wider & not as tall
Overall rating: 3.5
5 stars for being the only ultralight pack with significant internal capacity.
I got this pack for extended (8+ day) canoe camping trips because it is the only pack I could find with 70+L INTERNAL capacity. It is impossible to keep rain or water that accumulates in the boat out of in external pockets.
5 stars for cutting 5 pounds off the weight of my previous portage pack AND fitting more comfortably. The sized torso made a big difference. Hopefully sized waistbelts will come in the future (mine is barely small enough).
2 stars for being top-heavy when fully loaded. It's just too narrow to concentrate weight lower down, and the lack of stabilizer straps doesn't help.
2 stars for being too tall when fully loaded to carry a boat over my head. The pack hits the bottom of the boat. This and the top-heaviness could easily be solved by making the pack wider. There is a lot of room to make the pack wider without extending beyond even my narrow hips.
