I simply adore this backpack! It is incredibly comfortable, even fully (and I do mean fully!) loaded. I have 3 small children and use it weekly for
hiking. I honestly do not even feel it's weight (and this is with 5 or 6 full water bottles, spare
clothing changes, a portable kiddie toilet, lots of fruit and snacks, and rain gear for all). I can carry my backpack and my three year old in my arms when I need to, and my back is not killing me. This is really the most convenient (so many pockets!) and wearable bag I own. I look for excuses to use it just day-to-day! ;-D
