I purchased the pack as a extended weekend pack for my 19 year old son. He is 6'0" and weighs 220 lbs. This pack is listed as a 55 Liter pack. It is. It is well made and I will keep it for my wife. When he took it out of the box he tried it on. I looked at the packing materials. It is listed as a slim fit. It is for women and kids. It has a max waist of 32". This is not in the description. I wanted a full sized internal frame pack for him. The brochure that came with the pack clearly shows it as slim fit and lists the proportions. The ad does not. It would be great for youth and women, but I do not feel it is a good fit for adults. It is a good weekend pack and I am keeping it for my wife. The ad needs to show the brochure which clearly show High Sierra packs and who they fit and size.

I purchased this pack for a 3 day, 22-mile backpacking trip in Yosemite. The pack proved to be both reliable and comfortable with 45 pounds of gear stuffed into it. Comes with a spacious main compartment with an additional slot for a water bladder and complimenting guide to thread your mouth-piece through; plus, a lower compartment for a well-compressed sleeping bag is separated by a strong, zippered flap. The numerous straps/loops on the exterior creates almost limitless surface area for additional equipment. Additionally, a hidden pocket on the bottom hides away a sweet water proof cover for the pack in the event of a downpour.
The only real issue I found with this bag was its tenancy to loosen at the hip belt. For some reason, every half-hour or so, I found myself re-tightening the belt. Also, the shoulder harness anchor squeaks a bit.
All in all, for my first pack, I found this piece of equipment to be invaluable in what turned out to be a fantastic weekend backpacking through Yosemite.

Everything on this pack is adjustable! I got it for my boyfriend so he can join me on some backpacking adventures and it is perfect for his size (5'10 and 180lbs), and just about any other size since EVERTHING IS ADJUSTABLE! There's a lot of usable space and it is fairly light (not carbon fiber light, but it's pretty light for the size). The only reason this pack didn't get the five star rating from me is that it's not as light as it could be, but that's sometimes what happens when you use the thicker threading (which is more durable) and put in that back padding that this pack seems to have a lot of. The boyfriend says it is comfortable, so there you have it!

I've never had a "real" backpack before, just the kind kids use in school. I was surprised at how much I could fit into this backpack and still carry it comfortably on my back. I don't really plan to go hiking, though. I bought it to pack the things I'd need in case I might some day have to suddenly evacuate due to fire, earthquake or some other calamity. I'm pleased with it.

It is cheaper on amazon, but first test this bag in a store, this kind of stuff is very subjective and you don't know that it is going to suit you or not until and unless you try it first. I might like its fitting but may not suit you as everybody is different, so visit a store and try this out with some sandbags.
The built of the bag is really solid, enough space for three days of outdoor activity, all the straps are very easy to tighten, overall built is very good, I just wish it had more pockets.
