Product Reviews and Questions
Perfect
I borrowed one last year on an New Zealand alpine hunting trip, I knew I needed one of my own.
Light. tough and has lots of capacity, Swallowed up gear for a week in the mountains, then packed small enough for a day pack once camp was set up. Outside pockets and straps perfect for scope and tripod, waterproof - which was welcome and as comfortable on my back as my heavily padded Tatonka. A simple well thought design with nothing you don't need. A do it all pack. I might even get a smalled one too!
Awesome pack
Love it!

Southwest is the perfect pack!!
Great all around pack
Simple, well designed pack. Great material. Love it.
Finally found my pack!
Love this pack. Went on a short over night hike. Packed light but I can tell that I will be able to load this pack up and stay out for several days. Fits perfect and is very well made! I like the pockets on the hip belt and the way the top Y strap has 2 ways to cinch it down. Simple and functional...what more do you need?! I hate to admit this but I have been looking at this pack for a couple of years now. I bought a couple of different brands and gave them an honest try before ordering this one. As soon as I got it I loaded it up just like I was going on a 4 day/3 night excursion and I thought to my self...."why the h-ll didnt I buy this one first!!" Like my ol' grand pappy would say "as long as you don't stop learning you'll be ok!" Live and learn. Buy a Hyperlite!!!
