@longwinters4304 4 года назад

What have you found to be the best way to pack this b pack with your gear?

@JeremiahStringer 4 года назад

I’ve got a system that works for me. Compactor back with sleeping bag first with clothes around it, the tent and pad/pillow on top of that and cool system/food on top. Everything else on the outside pockets

How easy or difficult would it be to take out/put back in a 1 liter Nalgene water bottle from side stretch pocket when pack is fully loaded on the go?

@eddiebkheet5777 4 года назад

Thanks for the great video! Here's a question I always had regarding this backpack: Can the hipbelt break? I've seen in many youtube videos how the hip belt wraps around the waist. It looks like it's made of some solid material. Doesn't that make the bag vulnerable during transportation?

@BonerButter 3 года назад

What is the deal with the zippered access to the mesh compartment? ( the zipper is right above the hydration sleeve located inside the main compartment of the bag) It allows access to the mesh compartment that would be facing a hiker's back when the bag is worn. Are we supposed to use this as a storage compartment? If not, why is it accessible?

@naturallyherb 4 года назад

Absolutely love this backpack! Besides using it for travel I also use it as a daypack without the top lid because it's so comfortable and saved my back from sweating on really hot days!

Thinking about buying this pack since it’s on sale now at REI. How does this compare to the CTUG or the Outdoor Vitals? I know it’s heavier but I don’t mind a couple of extra pounds if it carries the load more comfortably. Also, I’m only out for a few days not months so weight is not my top priority in a pack.

@KEHTABP 4 года назад

The problem with getting a disposable suitcase to check-in the pack is that you have to travel back with the same pack, most likely on the same airline. You would need to purchase another Goodwill burner suitcase for the return trip. That can be problematic/expensive and, if travelling internationally, next to impossible. I had a very good experience with Osprey Airporter (medium size) on my trip to New Zealand and carried it through the Te Araroa trail.

@JeremiahStringer 4 года назад

Very true. I tossed the disposable one after arriving and new it wouldn’t be the end of the world if something got lost or broken on the way home. On the way there is would have been disastrous. I’d love to have everything be small enough to just carry on 😃

@LostAgainwithJim 4 года назад

I have an Atmos 65 and an Exos 58. I tend to use the Exos more often, the Atmos is mostly for winter overnights where I need to strap gear on the outside too. Mine did come with a rain cover, and a stuff sac. It was an REI special deal. I like them both, they have a similar carry feel, and I love the suspension system. The Exos suspension is not adjustable like the Atmos, but it's also about half the weight. Osprey suggests using baby powder for the squeak, but I found that it wears off after about 200 miles. So I started using graphite in the spots they recommend (the Exos squeaks too). It's been working all season. I rigged up a gravity system with my Versa Flow and a Cnoc Vecto to refill my bladder without removing it from my pack. My Bear Vault 500 fits fine, but I don't carry much haha. My kit is pretty minimal.

If somebody needs a "lid daypack", look into the Aether plus. It's huge though. Or you can look into the 2019, 2020, model of the aether, those earlier models had the daypack. Osprey removed it and switched it for a rain cover, then they released the "Aether Plus" model that includes everything but it is around $340.00 , it's all about business for osprey... Just buy a cheap lightweight pack on Amazon and throw it in the side pocket, use the saved money for something else.

When I die, I want to be buried in a 300liter Osprey bag. I love Osprey.

Nice backpack but I'm a little bit concerned about the Valco hip belt adjustment. ( Coming loose with a weighted pack)

@JeremiahStringer 4 года назад

I’ve never had it slip before. Once you have it adjusted to your waist size you normally wouldn’t move it again

@rolfoehrlein9875 4 года назад

Someone on youtube had a problem on his hike that the hip belt came loose, the velco let go. And from what he had said it happened several time on his trip. For this reason I well not buy this backpack. I well look for one the has a sewn on none adjustable hip belt from Osprey

Makes sense to me. I would definitely send mine back to Osprey if that happened to me. It would be super frustrating. Especially if it happened on a long trail like the AT
