Packs with stays Todd, I suspect that most of the users on this site don't backpack in areas that cannisters are required (that is just a quess), thus the lower base weights. As for me, Yosemite and SEKI are my sto... |

ULA Equipment Been using ULA packs for years. Bought the P2, P1 and now the Conduit. All are excellent in their own way. Customer service is perfect and so is the gear. Great packs!!! |

Bear Boxer 101 Contender Came home to find a rather colorful small box on my porch today. Wow it is small. I have always thought that it would be cool to have a small bear cannister for 1-2 nights of backpacking. Well here it... |

Six Moon Designs Gatewood Cape I have only taken this on one trip so far. Everything that I have read about this is true. The space (square feet) and the coverage is awesome. I did not feel claustrophobic at all. The harness is a g... |

Go Lite Speed Just bought this today with a need for a multi day pack. I like all of the extra pockets, but wish that they were just a little bigger. As for the helmet holder, this is a great feature. I will not be... |

Seychelle In Line Eliminator I too like the idea of this filter. The problem that I have had is getting the runs too. This has now happened a few times. Wonder if the filter is working at all. |

ULA Equipment P-1 I have owned a P-1 for six months now (and a P-2 for 3 years) and have come to really enjoy the qualities that make this pack a great weeklong hauler. The 1/4 length stays work well in making your pac... |
