PROS
1. Enough pockets, excellent accessibility of contents
2. Drink bottle easily accessible while traveling
3. Backrest grille cools nicely
CONS
1. Heavier backpack, not suitable/not recommended for lighter hikers
2. OSPREY's own backpack protector does not fit the backpack and comes off easily (completely useless in demanding or windy conditions unless separately roped to the backpack with additional straps)
3. I got bad bruises on my lower back with a weight of 20 kg, even though the backpack was adjusted and packed last. The hiking store's website specifies the model's carrying capacity as 14-27 kg? Maybe it just doesn't fit my physique.| Overall rating |
3 nights hiking in Hossa with a new backpack on the back. The spacious backpack carried all the stuff from the tent on and the adjustments made the backpack very comfortable to carry.
An extra pocket could always be an addition, but everything was carried neatly on the trip.
A really good backpack!
