Nickki DuBan Alberto's review

She's the newest edition to the pack of packs. While she hasn't gone out on a formal distance yet (I'm on the injured list right now), this UD pack is intended for ultras. 17L of fun space to stash all of my snacks and supplies! She's very comfortable wearing her around the house filled with nonsense so I could get a sense of the feel and fit.
