It is all about the fit!
All I had to do was shorten the torso length one ladder rung lower and this pack fit my wife to perfection. The shoulder strap curve and length fit, the belt angle matched her hips and wrapped around without a wrinkle. The pull forward belt adjustment allowed her to comfortably pull on enough tension. While that bag itself is simple and light the side compression straps fit both of our sleeping pads and the two zipper pockets in the lid fit all of the small parts that make up a backpacking camp. She was dreading the thought of heading out in the rain into the Goat Rock Wilderness in Washington and now tells her friends that it was a blast. The pack and backpacking fit her in every way.
Great Pack
Wonderful carrying capacity when taken internationally. Could use a pocket for little things to hold change or an id. A zippered section to grab items at the bottom of the pack would be EXQUISITE rather than having to completely unload.
not what i was looking for
I returned this pack, however, it was nice. It was light and practical and a good price. What I didn't like about it was that it didn't have a seperate compartment for my sleeping bag at the bottom and there weren't any other smaller, zippered compartments. My sleeping bag was a tight fit and I would have had to take everything out to get to it. I did get another Deuter though, great brand.
