You know I was going to buy a Kelty, they were on sale at the REI near my house. They certainly are nice backpacks. The guy at the store loaded it with 35-40 lbs of sandbags and let me try it on, it held the weight really well. I'm satisfied with my Mars 80L though. REI has a great warranty on it, and all in all they are one of my favorite companies. (USAA is also another great company)

This pack has been with me for 12 years, traveled to 16 countries and is a perfect "No nonsense" pack. Very adaptable. I try to keep it to the 65L mark (which I think is packing heavy) and then save the extra 10L section for extra food for the longer trips. LOVE LOVE LOVE having this pack on my back. It's like a Hug from a longtime friend

i too have a cfp-90. with a patrol pack. i love this pack. i used to have one for years, that i actualy found in perfect condition being thrown out around the block from me during spring cleanup time. it was dark out and i was actualy in the market for a pack, as i was planning on hitting the road and traveling. it was pretty fucking crazy the way i came upon it. i just saw the outline of something camoflauge. had no idea what it was until i picked it up. i could get furthur into the story as it was mind blowing. i was actualy dosing at the time, and there was some trippy shit on the local radio station that coincided with my finding. it served me very well for years of traveling. was basically my turtle shell for a while. i lived out of it. somehow or another, a couple years ago, it was in my girlfriends garage, and there were a few friends of mine helping her clean it out and organize it. no one owned up to it, and im sure they didnt steal it, but i think someone thought it was garbage and threw it out. i had lost the internal frame pieces, but it was still in fine condition and i planned on figuring out how to order them. it was proly a lil dirty being in the garage, but i was so pissed it got tossed, if for no other reason than it had alot of sentimental value. anyway, i finally bought another one a few months ago, and this came with the patrol pack which is a nice addition. ive yet to use it, but certainly will this summer. been stocking up on good gear in the meantime. i got it off ebay for about 120 bux too. not bad. they are a lil heavier than alot of packs, but so rugged, fit alot and alot of spots for attachments with the molle connections.
-------------------- Big Gulps! Alright! Well, See ya later! And if i claim to be a wise man, well, it surely means that i dont know!

I've got a 20 year old BD 6k liter pack that's on it's last legs, that I haven't used now that I've got my 2400cc REI Lookout 40 a few months ago.
I've gotten into climbing pretty hardcore over the past 2 years, and this pack is perfect for that in this area (Central Texas). It's great for ultra-light and fast weekend adventures, and absolutely perfect for bringing along all the extra shit I could ever want during a day at the crag.
I do find myself wishing I had something bigger for the weekends though, and once winter comes around and I shed the ultra-light blanket and hammock for my tent or bivy sack with sleeping bag and pad, I will be needing something bigger... No idea what I'm going to get yet, though I do like the go-lite packs a lot.

I love Osprey packs.
I use the same Atmos 50 for my multi day excursions. It's 5 or so years old and probably has close to 1000 miles on it by now and it still looks brand new. Its the perfect pack for me and cant find anything to complain about it.
For day trips, around town, festies, and simple summer overnighters i use an old ass Osprey Talon 22. This thing has been everywhere with me and really needs to be replaced. I just cant replace anything till it falls apart and the pack is still in good condition besides the stains and wear and tear from all the abuse i threw at it.
Osprey in my opinion makes the best packs hands down. I would never buy another brand.

In my opinion the best ultra lite pack around is the Hyperlite Mountain Gear pack. It's a cuben fiber \ silnylon hybrid, 28oz for the 40L, has a frame, and its water proof. http://www.hyperlitemountaingear.com/packs/2400-series/2400-southwest-ultralight-pack.html
