This pack has good ventilation, weighs very little, has unparalleled harness adjustability, and can comfortably carry a lot of weight. It has amazing compression straps so it rides fine even if you don't load it all the way up; you can slim it down and pull the contents close to your back. In other words, you can buy the 85L model and use it as a 50L pack for overnights (heck, it probably weighs less than most 50L packs), then use the full 85L when you get those $109 plane tickets to Iceland on Wow Air and have to carry a 4-season tent and stove to avoid the lodging and restaurant prices over there. The framesheet has adjustment points for lots of back lengths and even fits folk with wide necks. I just pulled the trigger on a Gregory Baltoro pack on clearance (2017 model) because I was unaware of this deal. This pack is way lighter than the Baltoro, way way more adjustable, has better ventilation, compressed down better for smaller loads, has the cool factor of the fiberglass-maple framesheet, and costs less. Tempted to buy one anyway cuz frequently need an extra pack when subjecting friends or relatives to backpacking and this is a lower price than a used one <knuckle chewing>...
