Love it
I bought this for day hikes but also plan on using it on an upcoming 5 day trip to New York. It is versatile enough for both (I already tried packing for the trip and was able to fit if I pack light.) I also filled up the hydration reservoir and with the lumbar reservoir you barely feel the weight. I had tried this pack on at a retail store and then ended up paying just 1/3 the cost here. Campsaver is the best.

Review for Pursuit 24L Backpack w/3L Resevoir
Priced right, retail was about $150-$160 but got it here on Campsaver for $72.40 (I used a 10% discount code that I received from them when I first signed up, thanks Campsaver!). I was looking for a dayhike bag in the $100-$120 range so when I saw the price on this one, I had to get it.
Haven't had a chance to use this backpack out in the field yet but, after extensive research and considering brands such as Gregory, Osprey, REI, and Camelbak (all great brands by the way) I decided to go with this Camelbak Pursuit 24L for the following reasons:
1) I needed a slightly larger daypack than the 10 Liter bicycle hydration pack I was using as I'm getting into photography on my hikes and need a bigger pack
2) I liked that this pack's hydration system sits low on the hips rather than all along the spine of your back and that the water bladder was 3 liters
3) I was also looking for a pack that was rigid but had a breathable mesh back, had ample storage, side mesh bottle holders, and a stretchy front mesh pocket.
4) Lastly, I was looking for a pack that could be used not only for hiking but as a pack for short weekend trips while staying in a hotel or Air BnB.
The one item that would have made this the perfect bag for me was if it had a small admin pocket with multiple mini compartments for things like pens, chapstick, pocketknife, and other small "convenience" items that I like to carry

Used on Rim to Rim Grand Canyon Hile this week
Very comfortable and I really like the low placement of the water reservoir, Very well padded and easy to adjust to fit. Great little pack that made it across the Grand Canyon, 2 nights at Phantom Ranch. If I had it to do over I would buy a slightly larger capacity pack. When you fill the reservoir to 3 liters it takes some work to get your stuff into the pack. I bought a smaller pack to force me to be choiceful on what I bought on the hike. But every time I added water I Had to pull stuff from my pack and then re-pack. Most of my hikes will be shorter and not an issue but getting a larger pack would have made for less effort when re-filling.
Would recommend: Yes
