used this pack on a weeklong hike in the green mountains in Vermont and it worked great. This is my first ultra light backpack and I'm never going back. The roll top was an easy access and from day one with a full load was packed tight to the last day with no food it could still be rolled tight.

I was worried about the frame and the non ajustable shoulder straps but being 6'3" with the regular/med fit it worked great. The stretch pockets on the size worked awesome and I could grab my water bottle with out taking off the pack. The front mesh pocket fit all my rain gear and a few snacks. I did put a belt pocket from ZPacks and it worked just fine.

On the last day of the hike my buddy's had enough and took a short cut out to a road and I continued the trail for another 10miles. I tried a little trail run with the light load and the pack was very snug and the run was enjoyable. All in all great pack

after looking around this was the best buy for the money I wanted to spend. I used a foam pad most of my life and I was uneasy dropping 100$ plus on something to sleep on. I glad I bought it and it works well and it's not too heavy. I wish I got a shorter one the regular is long for me (6'3") I only need one that goes down to my knees. But again good buy
