Exped 40 torrent backpack - Exped Torrent 40 Backpack

Wears solid and comfortable. Measures 24" high by 12" wide by 8" deep for a volume of about 38 liters. The 8" deep is somewhat restrictive on what you can carry in some circumstances. This replaces my worn out Outdoor Research Dry Comp pack. Pretty thick material, I have no doubt it's waterproof. Exped says maximum load is about 28 pounds. That lower carrying weight might be an issue for some hikes. This will be my main pack for weekend hikes and carry-on for plane trips. It's nice to have a water proof pack. Takes the stress out of planning what to take if it might rain.
