Isabella Poulos's review
Hilo has a hefty gear list (all necessary for high alpine races like this) which meant I needed a pack with space for everything. Super comfy, easy to access pockets all over. I love that this pack doesn't move at all when I'm running, and the tightening system is really easy to adjust to mid race when the body starts to feel a little sore all over.

After having other packs fail on me mid-race, I've become an Ultraspire lover. The packs are durable, strong, and can fit all the gear I need! Plus, they fit comfortably on my smaller form.
