I own both the Mystery Ranch Bridger, and Osprey Atmos. My experience is almost the same as yours. The Bridger is the most comfortable pack I've ever worn, and does not feel heavy at all. The Airspeed/AG on the Osprey is like nothing else when it comes to breathability and the way it contours to your back. I've found though the Bridger is simply more comfortable on the shoulders after really long days on the trail. Some feel the Atmos can "sway" some, because of it's separation from your back. But most people don't notice this at all. One thing you didn't get into was the way the Baltoro/Deva (women's version) pack is designed is with a more shaped lumbar support. For some people this is an absolute godsend. For others, it is hard to fit their back. One simply has to try the pack on. They key of course is to buy the pack that fits you best. Agree with you on UL. That is it's own beast, and the LAST place someone should begin if going UL is with your backpack.

I got a Gregory 80 liter mountaineering backpack 18 years ago, been taking it up and down the canadian rockies and all over BC and Alberta, it has floated in a lake, fallen off a cliff, been shipped full cross country a dozen or more times, still as great as the day I got it. Comfortable, highly adjustable, water PROOF of just resistant. 100% would recommend Gregory

I'm not sure how you can review a Mystery Ranch pack without mentioning their heritage: Dana Designs, and Dan Gleason himself. In the 80's there were really only two pack pack manufactures our there: Dana Designs and Gregory (Dana Gleason and Wayne Gregory). Thats it. Just two worth mentioning. Were there others? Yes, but these guys were so far ahead of the curve that there was no reason anyone serious would consider carrying anything else. Gregory is still, IMO, in the top 2 and as companies go, has been the only long standing high-end manufacturer (USA) that has managed to stick around consistently... well, sorta, Wayne sold "Gregory" decades ago and it has changes hands a couple times. But the "company" has been well run and continued to make top-tier packs (The Bartolo is the flagship). Dana Designs took another path, Dana Gleason sold the company and the buyer (K2 I believe) killed it... who knows why but Dana Designs packs disappeared... one of the two best in the world just sorta vanished. Must have made Dana Gleason Furious. Well, lucky Dana Gleason's non-complete must have run out and he started making his packs again under "Mystery Ranch". While Gregory's product line went main stream Mystery Ranch packs have sorta stayed under the radar Partly because most their market development is Military, Hunting and Firefighting... Luckily for all of us they are now back in the swing of producing a full recreational line and they are as bomb-proof as ever (Those that are old enough will get the 'Bomb Pack' reference ;-). The ArcFlex/Light suspensions of the past are gone, replaced with equally amazing modern systems. I carry Gregory Bartolo's for multi-day humps... but if I wear one out (hard to do as I also have a 30 year old Gregory Shasta still going strong) I will definitely pick up a current generation Mystery Ranch Terraplane or a Bridger... Terraplane, Bridger, Glacier... all Packs once produces under "Dana Designs"... Dana - Make the Bombpack again! ;-) Both Mystery and Gregory make the best packs out there... This are better? Both... they are both different and have different attributes. Which are more bomb proof - absolutely Mystery Ranch... but both are built to out last your ability to walk.

@@thatroykid no worries. one of the best bags I’ve had on my back. Only things I’ve got to complain about is the zips on the waistband pockets require 2 hands to zip them up. Maybe they’ll wear in. But it means you need to be part contortionist to hold the pocket and zip it. And the top of the bag can make looking up a bit difficult because of the curve in the webbing. But besides them it’s spectacular. Just looking at it makes me wanna go out. 👍🏻

@@Alkelism I'm still going to get to a local shop and try on the Baltoro as well, since one of these will be my first multi-day pack. The thing that I like about the Baltoro is the easy access to the middle of pack, so I can easily get to my camera and drone. I just with the Baltoro had the suspension system of the Atmos, that would probably be my "perfect" backpack, even though there's no such thing lol

I’m curious how all of you feel about this now. Personally, I think the extra access isn’t worth as much as it seems. I pack gear into stuff sacks. So rummaging for a specific sack isn’t a big deal. Generally I like the atmos best of the three. Curious if anyone has new ideas.

I absolutely love my Gregory Deva (women's version of the Baltoro)! I am an organizational freak so all those pockets and front access are perfect. In addition, I am 50 years old and just got back into backpacking last summer, after 25 years of not backpacking. Used an old external frame pack from the 90s back then. But hey, I'd like a few "creature features" when I'm out in the backcountry now, like a chair, or God forbid, an extra pair or two of socks 🤣. These newer packs carry loads like a dream!

I spent a lot of time researching backpacks before I landed on the Osprey Atmos 65L and have no regrets. I spent a week on a grueling trail here in Ontario, Canada and while I most likely overpacked (around 48 lbs), this pack carried the weight beautifully. While the full zip on the other packs is a good idea and great when packing, I typically keep all of my essential items I might need in accessible areas. Everything else in the middle or at the bottom doesn't come out until I get to camp. Love the size because its also great for winter trips, lots of room for bulkier gear. Thanks for the great videos.

For this weight and class of backpacks, definitely am going with the Mystery Ranch. The adjustable back length and the quick zip for sleeping bags not to mention the superior hip belt and quick water bottle access on the chest make this the perfect pack for 3 to 5 days. The design allows for quick access to bulky items like camera cubes and electronics.
@johnmorgan4405
@johnmorgan4405 2 года назад
The reviewer neglected to mention the most important part of the Atmos pack. It has one of the most customizable fitting systems of any pack on the market, including adjustable back length. The Atmos also allows you to put your water bottle at a 45 degree angle in the side pocket so you can grab it easily. This should have been way more in depth on all the packs.

I don’t mind that it doesn’t have front panel access to the middle of the pack. It’s not THAT hard to get stuff from the pack compared to others. When I wanna go really light, I have my Talon & Exos packs from Osprey. So I’m covered for pretty much for all my hiking needs. 👍🏼

Thanks for sharing. I think the Granite Gear Blaze 60 is one backpack on the lighter side that I also recommend to people. It has nice adjustments for people dial it in for comfort, large enough that that they can still load it up until they learn to take what they really need and at 3 pounds, I do not consider it ultralight but a great balance. It is also durable enough to last but cheap enough to not break the bank.

Love your channel and the variety of things you do on it. I know being ultralight is not your style which I completely respect. But it sure would be fun to see a video of you going ultralight all the way from the backpack to every piece of gear. It would just be fun to see you experience that and what your takeaways would be from do it. I think you might be surprised on how lightweight you can go and still be quite comfortable. Just a thought for a future video. Or series of videos.😏 Shoot maybe you and Dan could do it together. That would be entertaining.

This is a good, balanced. perspective. Agreed that carry system and fit are, by far, the most important things. Mystery Ranch weighs a full pound more than the others, but it might be a "good" pound. My 5 lb Lowe Alpine has been good to me, so I agree that you have found the sweet spot for weight-vs-carry comfort.

Great info! I've been a diehard Mystery Ranch and Osprey fan. My EDC is a MR and My backcountry is an Aether 70 AG that I love. I got it specifically because it does have access to the inner components and has the AG harness. I have yet to find the perfect backpack for either EDC or Backcountry, but you can't go wrong with any you mentioned. I would HIGHLY recommend anyone test the fit before buying! If it doesn't fit your body right, none of these reviews matter! Fit and comfort are crucial for a backpack if you are going to hike any kind of distance.

Happy with my purchase nearly 4 years ago of the Osprey Atmos AG 65. Bought it at a reduced price new and have used it here at home in Hawaii and traveling to the Big Island of Hawaii and Maui, hiking into Haleakala Crater National Park.Water was a concern so extra water was carried and the pack held up and comfortable. Carried a water bladder on the top of my pack tucked into a coozy-like reflective holder which worked with 4 Nalgene water bottles. The hiking poles were held at times securely in Osprey's pole snugger easily. Overall comfortable each time it's been put under stress with weight and girth.

Good review. I really like (almost) everything about the Osprey Atmos. Tried it on at my local REI. Great suspension system and very comfortable. The deal-breaker for me is that it has no main compartment access, or very limited. I hate having to reach in from the side and feel around for something or dig down from the top looking for something in the middle of the pack or near the bottom. If they had front access like the other two bags in your review I would buy the Osprey, but as it's currently designed I have to pass.

That being said, I would still like to own the new Bridger 65 but in the 'wood' color they have available. -I also own a Rothco knockoff of the CFP-90 (this thing is huge, prob make a good INCH bag) -5.11 RUSH 72 with matching 5.11 IFAK, 5.11 Tactical tier system, Maxpedition Cocoon, Maxpedition TC-1 and Maxpedition TC-2 pouches attached. (Good for backwoods camping of up to a week or as a BOB) -3V Gear Velox II with IFAK, H2O pouch & a mag pouch that my Bahco Laplander fits perfectly.

Mystery Ranch itself has been making packs since the early 2000’s and have won several military, firefighting, and police contracts. However they are a successor company to Dana Designs which has been making packs all the way back from the 80’s. Hope this helps and is at least a little informative.

I am surprised you didn't include the Fjällräven Kajka! It's heavy, but I think its the best backpack on the market and has been for many year. :) I love the Baltoro as well..its amazing! I can't fit Osprey very well, but maybe I will give MR a try and see how it does.. :)

65 liters would be a good size if the pack were really that size. Osprey Atmos is more like 40 liters plus some pockets. They count funny. It matters when you try to actually cram non-UL overnight gear into it. Could benefit from better gear mounts top and bottom for overflow.

Here is the thing, the 65 liters does indeed fit 65 liters. It all depends on how you pack your gear into the bag if it fits in. For example, instead of throwing folded clothes in there, roll them up. You'll save up a lot of room by doing that. The more organized you are then the more extra space you'll have.

@@kevinstarski1598 I'm a leisurely backpacker, 5-10 miles in, hike a loop, chill out, three day trips. I figured Gregory was one of the first internal frame packs going back to the days of A-16 in SoCal, so I like my new Gregory pack. Happy trails!

I can't believe no-one is mentioning how much of a pain in the butt the osprey is to get on and off. the shoulder straps d0 not open very much at all due to the cinch straps being so short....even went up a size to L/XL and didn't help any at all and this is mid summer with just a t shirt on, couldn't imagine wearing a jacket.The waist belt springs closed so tight also making it a pain to get on and off. I purchased mine 4 weeks ago, not sure if it has changed since this video. Returned and bought the Baltoro and the straps open so much wider, very easy to get on and off. I myself am new to backpacking and need to take more breaks than more experienced, so I'm sure this makes the problem really stand out to me as I am dropping my pack multiple times a day. I love the AG system the Atmos and really wanted to like this pack, but I just can't deal with getting it on and off. The Baltoro has been awesome for me.

Landed on your channel while again when you guys were reviewing the Sea Telos and Alto. Currently looking for a new pack and I told myself oh you check that guy's channel 😂😂. Definitely have my eyes on the Mr Ranch based on the chest feature and the fact that you can open it from the front. I currently have the REI Flash 55 and I've been using it for 6-7 day trips. Love how light it's, but I need a bit more room. Will check our your review on the Mr. Ranch now. :)

.. Huge fan of the dual access main compartment .. get at any particular piece of gear without having to dig through the rest ..which also allows a better formed ,,more comfortabe carry ....the detachable brain is a bonus for day trips from a high base camp ...can add a long cross soulder strap to wear as loose side carry ,,, or because of large size ,,design a wider cross body strap to wear as a slingpack ,,the large fanny pack is very uncomfortable and awkward .....or leave it off completely if carrying a smaller load .... not a fan of the chest harness of the MR ,but would have to try it on trail to get a true opinion... quality padded shoulder straps deffinitely carry heavy loads well...... pockets and water bottle pouches on quality padded hip belts are a plus ,IMO ...

Which would you recommend among these three for a long (multiple months) trip in a hot and humid climate? Long hikes would be occasional and mostly it would need to be carried for shorts bursts while exchanging transport medium and stuff. The Bridger seems superior to me given the possibility of the wide opening while in hotel/hostels but the vest-like fitting seems risky for sweating too much in such type of weather. Many thanks!
@BackpackingTV

I've seen on your channel how much you champion the Mystery Ranch Bridger, and it looks like an awesome backpack! Do you know any retailer that carries it? They aren't carrying it at REI yet and Mystery Ranch's website doesn't speak of any other retailer besides REI. When reviewing their return policy, it seems quite stringent so I am unsure if I would want to spend the money to just try out the bag with the off chance it just doesn't fit my particular body. Would love to know your thoughts!

I bought an osprey aether 75 backpack , which I loved. But realized it doesn’t have enough room for everything I desired to carry for a short or even a long backpack trip. So it is now a daypack , I have tried Gregory packs no good for me ! Started looking at other backpacks outside of this realm. I Wish I would of done this sooner. I am a fan of stone glacier packs light durable expand and contract add or delete compartments , the pack I like of there’s is the one I can move bag compartment away from frame if needed to put things besides meat etc in the middle , I do not like things hanging outside of packs

It is a lot of money and I'm like okay for 30$ more I get the bigger one and are on the safe side, on the other hand I don't want to carry an oversized backpack..thanks a lot already! :)
@BackpackingTV
@BackpackingTV Год назад
It depends. For many backpackers doing 2-5 day trips you can use the 55 liter version just fine. If you carry extra things like camera equipment or want to go on longer trips (and need to carry more food) or want to have a backpack that allows you more flexibility with your trips, I'd recommend the 65L version. The 65L is my favorite size among all backpacks, but I carry camera equipment and am a notoriously un-light backpacker.

The 65L is also less than a half a pound more and just a few bucks more, id say its better to go bigger than needing the extra space later if u go smaller, I myself am not a ultralight, and I carry a wool sleeping bag and wool mid layer as well as a oilskin version of a outer shell or windbreaker, yes it is heavier but its mostly larger in volume, I don't really carry a lot of stuff at all but I do carry thing that are bigger than the synthetic stuff.

Surprised Deuter is virtually absent on these youtube reviews. It looks interesting and cheaper than most in tis category. Wonder why that is...
@Im_With_Stupid
@Im_With_Stupid 8 месяцев назад
They're not really cheaper. Deuter does have some similarly sized options that cost less than the Baltoro, but their load ratings are lower. Gregory also makes other models with the same volume and less weight capacity that are priced roughly the same as a comparable Deuter. Deuter's weight capacity ratings are weird and they don't offer a pack with a rating comparable to the Baltoro 65 (50lbs). You get either several pounds under with the Futura Air and Core series or several pounds over with the X series, the latter coming with an even higher price tag than the Baltoro. My teenage daughter has a 50+10 Core and she really likes it. The brand as a whole might get more attention if they'd clean up their load ratings because as it is now a 95 liter Aircontact X is about $450 IF you can even find one and it has the same 66lb load rating as the 75 liter X, while the 100 liter Baltoro has a 75lb rating and is in the $420 range.
