It is a great pack for a one or two day trip. Lightweight and comfortable to wear; nice construction with lots of outer mesh pockets. Was smaller than I thought it would be and there is no hydration sleeve as advertised.

Good lightweight bag. I took it (absolutely stuffed) around the world. With boots bungee-corded to the outside and sandals cinched on one side, it really does have enough capacity for serious traveling. If you're planning to go camping as well, though, I'm sure it's another story. The bag is very durable and well engineered except for the placement of the shoulder straps. I'm somewhat narrow-shouldered, so maybe it's my fault, but it very frequently felt as if the bag were about to slip off the edges of my shoulders. I had to keep the chest-strap tight. If you're looking for a lightweight, durable bag that will force you to simplify your packing, I recommend it.
