    I just finished a month trip climbing in the Southwest (Red Rock Canyon, Zion, Indian Creek) and this bag was perfect to get rack/rope/camera/clothing/water/food to and from climbs. The pack is comfortable and has plenty of space. I'm 6'2" 155lbs and the large is perfect for me.

    This was a bit of a surprise to me but this backpack is actually quite modular. The backpack head flap comes off as well as the hip belt. This means if you need a light slim pack for school, this bag can do it. When you need it for some backpacking or mountaineering, reattach the hip belt and head pocket and be on your way. At 46 liters this bag is the perfect size for most weekend trips.
