So GREAT I'm buying my it again! By Goddess of Love from Portland Oregon on 08/05/2008 Pros: Durable, Extremely comfortable, Good Back Support, Good Padding Best Uses: Airline Travel, Backpacking, Extended Travel, Great Day Pack, Short Travel, Weekend Trips Describe Yourself: Avid Adventurer What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: I first bought this pack in 2005 for a trip to Borneo to do habitat mapping for Orangutans in Tanjung Puting National Park. It was thoroughly abused on that month long trip, wading through swamps and the jungle in 90 degree weather with 100% humidity. This pack breathes well and I was never uncomfortable; well..maybe from the leaches but not from the pack. It held up great for this and other field research over two years.
My favorite features, beside comfort, were the angled water bottle holder and the little zipper pockets in the waist strap. I could keep up with the Dayak guides and still get a snack or my water bottle without having to stop and take off my pack or ask someone to get out my water bottle. Also, the fact that it's proportioned to fit a 5'2" womans body is awesome. The XS fit me like a glove.
Sadly my first one was stolen and I have wished for it back many times. Now I'm preparing to go to Tinian to do some bird surveys and I'm so happy to have found this pack on-line! It's no longer available at the retailer where I bought it because it's an older model. The new models don't have the angled water bottle holder which was one of my favorite features, what was Gregory thinking?
I recommend this pack for use as a day pack or for a weekend backpack trip. I checked extended travel but as a daypack not for a major backpacking expedition; it's not big enough for that. Get this pack ladies!
By Beginner Missionary from Virginia on 07/25/2008 Pros: Easy to Pack, Good Back Support, Good Padding Best Uses: Airline Travel, Short Travel Describe Yourself: Casual/ Recreational What Is Your Gear Style: Comfort Driven Bottom Line: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend Comments: Remember that this is a DayPack. It is small; but PERFECT for shorter females like myself. And The COMFORT! Wow! I absolutely love it! There are some side panel zipped compartments on the waiste belt that are very cool and handy. Very pleased.
