"Good pack only one flaw..."
          10/25/09
i love this pack, even though it took a while to break in, but after that i frekin loved it....that is....until the top zipper busted on me. This summer i worked for the NPS working trails in the backcountry, so this pack went through a lot! It took it very well till the zipper broke, BUT, since Gregory is such a good company they are fixing it for free :) support our national parks love the madness -maxwell

"Great durable pack"
          10/24/09
I bought this pack about a year ago, and have been very pleased with it, having taken it through the, Adirondaks, and Tetons. It held up very well and still looks brand new. Literally the only thing I can think of that this pack is missing is a whistle built into the sternum strap, but this is an incredibly minor thing.

"Outstanding pack - most comfortable I've used"
          09/27/09
Highly acclaimed product lives up to its reputation IMHO. Carried 37 pounds on a fairly tough section of the AT but it felt much lighter. Great access to the pack from top, middle & bottom. Excellent zippers & straps help customize and secure the load no matter how large or small. Wonderful belt & shoulder straps left no hot spots. Top notch!

"Sick Nasty Backpack"
          08/05/09
This pack has so much space it is crazy. I can fit a two man tent, sleeping bag, fleece blanket for those cold nights, plenty of clothes for a week (depending on how often you change), a pillow, and that's just in the main compartment. That leaves the outside pockets for any little amenities you might like to bring. Love the Camelback pouch bag and the water-bottle pockets on the hip strap. But Gregory didn't stop with the space, the pack is so comfortable that it really does seem to take the weight right off.

"Feels great. squeaks a ton..."
          08/03/09
This pack feels great but squeaks a ton...Make sure you have your duct tape ready. I had to tape off all the bolts/rivets (whatever they're called) to get the squeaking to stop. Pretty distracting when your out in the wilderness and it's supposed to be completely quiet. The pack feel great though! You can definitely maneuver a ton better with the articulating hip belt. It compresses down pretty amazing-ly as well...Oh, the hip belt mesh pocket was a tad too small for my Panasonic Lumix TZ3 camera...(which was a bummer). Oh! And the left bottle holder is a little tight for a nalgene (my pocket ripped)...

"Steller Pack, Ultra Comfortable, Light, Very Adjustable, Easy To Access, What's Not To Love"
          07/05/09
i love this pack, but i recommend it for people 5'8"+ and 120 lbs+ i have broad shoulders for being as short as i am, and light as i am(5'9", 117 lbs) so this pack fits like a glove, i also like the snack pouches on the waist. The back pad is great and relieves a lot of pressure

"Best backpack that I have ever owned"
          06/16/09
It is a great backpack. I was the only one not complaining about my back and shoulders hurting after a backpacking trip. I love how the weight of the backpack shifts with your body due to its dynamic support system.

"Just great"
          05/29/09
This pack had enought side pockets, and carried the gear well. I walked down the Kaibab Trail at the Grand Canyon and stayed at the Bright Angel Campgrounds, then went back up by way of the Bright Angel Trail. Did not notice the weight of the pack, keep the weight on the hips. Have a neck injury from a motorcycle accident, and this pack had no effect on my neck, life saver...tef

"Awesome for multi-day trips"
          05/18/09
For a 70 liter pack this thing feels down right light. I've taken it on 2 multi-day trips, hiking over 30 miles each trip. If you have had lower back problems with other packs, definitely look into trying this one. The lower lumbar support is fantastic, and the weight distribution is the best I've seen. Pockets and straps and adjustments, yadda yadda, awesome pack! 2008 Gear of the year winner for a reason!
