Gregory Kanter's review

There's a reason you see these everywhere on folks who do this stuff often. Shockingly comfy for how minimal it is. Fits a ton of stuff for overnights but then rolls down to almost day-pack size for summit bids. No zippers to fail, pretty waterproof, and easy to see inside because of the translucent fabric. Love it!
