The Mystery Ranch Sphinx Pack is a lightweight backpack for overnights, weekends, and even a week on the backcountry trails. The main entry point is from the top, but a centralized, vertical zipper allows you to access your gear, without having to dig from the top. Just what is necessary for when you need only your stove at lunch and don't wish to unpack the whole kit and caboodle. Smaller items that also require quick access can be placed within the vertical torpedo pockets or the top lid. Remove the hipbelt on lightly loaded, super-fast overnights but be sure to buckle up when the load reaches capacity to get the most use and comfort out of the Adventure Frame. Attach ice axes or trekking poles to the front and toss water bottles into the side pockets, or carry your hydration reservoir within the pack.

Awesome - waited 17 years for this!I bought a Dana Design Sluiskin 45 in 2001, and have used it for about 200 nights of short camping trips. That bag has/had one serious flaw - a long narrow tube design with a constrictive top opening - but it held up perfectly and I never replaced it because of how amazing the suspension is. The designer of that bag started a new company several years ago, with offering for hikers, hunters, and military and paramedic types. I took a chance on this based on a good sale and the shared designer and lucked out -- it is probably the definition of a perfect overnight pack.
The suspension is very comfortable; I have had this out for three trips now, and on uneven ground and with loads of about 50 lbs, this pack is rock steady, transmitting weight neatly to the hips with no strain on the bag. The big advantage over my previous pack is the zip down the middle. Hiking with a family, you are never sure what will be needed next, so to be able to pick things out in any order is an unbelievable advantage. Finally, the tube pockets on the outside provide one more layer of convenience. I can put my hard shell in one, and my hammock, straps, and bug net in the other, so for either a quick nap or a quick weather change, it is super easy. The hydration system holder is great also; nicely made to stop the inevitable squish to the bottom of the pack, and with great tube holders on the shoulders.
This pack would be an expensive, once-in-a-lifetime purchase that I would agonize over but never regret at several hundred dollars more than I ended up paying.

supports a lot of weight for its sizeI lead a back country trail crew, so i got this pack to hold tools, camp gear and personal stuff. The pack holds way more than the 65 liters it's sized as, and I've consistently carried 60+ pounds through rough terrain fairly comfortably. Plus, so far, it's held up well to the inevitable abuse.

AmazingVery easy to carry everything in; I like how you can lay it flat and open it right up like a suitcase! Also I really like the color selection and that it fits me perfectly.

Great comfort and load carryThis pack's suspension with and hip belt are very honed in. As a result it is comfortable even with heavier loads, and feels like part of your body. Just the right amount of pockets for organization and I love the front zipper that gives me full access to my entire bag, even down to the bottom of the bag when fully loaded. The bag is tough and you don't have to worry about light materials ripping or failing. Yet it isn't much heavier than lesser lighter weight bags. the tradeoff of some extra weight is matched by spot on support and comfort.
