Pros and Cons   05-29-08   

Pros: Nice size for an overnight trip; skiing or climbing. Expands to hold a ton of gear. Lots of compartments make organization a breeze. I like the drinking system. I trust a nalgene in my pack way more than any bladder. Separate shovel compartment, dedicated probe/Shovel handle sleeves, and hip pockets are sweet. And the side zipper makes getting at your gear easy. Cons: The padding on the waist belt and shoulder straps is too thin. Overall I would like to have more support for hauling all of the gear this pack can hold. The material is way too thin to take any abuse. Two climbing trips and the pack already has several small rips in it. Definately not a cragging pack. I think this will make a good ski pack but for climbing it's a dud.
