I bought this pack and love all of the features. I looked for so long to get all of the features in a light pack. Very light for what it offers. Very affordable too but I would choose this pack over more expensive packs based on features alone. The full burrito style opening with option to open only sides is great. My only complaint about this pack is the lack of breathability on the back panel. It gets a bit sweaty. Better foam layout or a mesh back liner to create air space would help. Hopefully a feature upgrade in the future by REI.
Can someone confirm that this backpack can hold 100oz? I'm really interested in purchasing but I read from the comment section at REI's own website that multiple people stated that this backpack cannot hold a 3L bladder as a con. Thanks!
@@tckimx thanks for the reply. I understand the entire bag can hold 3 liters and then some!, but I was referring to the compartment on the bag that is meant to hold the hydration bladder. That compartment does not appear to be large enough to hold a 3L bladder

@@pepmaster it’s a 40 Liter capacity pack. I’ve never seen pack capacity measured in Oz before, but the conversion to Fl Oz is 1410.
