Looking for a decent hiking pack - suggestions? 30-Jun-2011 At 10:05:41 AM ClimbingNT

Well looks like I have now aquired a Kathmandu Altai Pack and 20lt dry bag.
I had a friend head down south for work, and brought me back one of these as a suprise. The place she was staying was just around the corner from a store having a 50% - 70% off sale.



Pack seems more narrow than my previous pack and is basic with 'no frills'. I think that being more narrow is a good thing though, as it wont get caught as often when pushing through the scrub. It doesnt have any zips to break, and under the lid is a clip then 2 draw cords to keep your gear inside the bag. Its obviously not as heavy duty as a canvas pack though, but it is lighter.

Will have to see how it goes. It was a gift, so I am pretty happy. Going to test it out this weekend to see how handles when filled with climbing gear and what not.
