Chuter™ 28 5 5 1 1
Hard test, right out of the box I was able to test this pack 12 hours after recieving it. It may have been an unfair challenge, 5 days of grueling hauling, zipping, rezipping, putting on, taking off, packing, unpacking.....5 days in Disneyland with twin boys and grand parents. I was proud of how many juice boxes, snacks, napkins, wipes, cameras, maps, toys and keepsakes, sunglasses, walking canes and ederly American maintenance products it could carry, disperse and repack on a moments notice. At first I was skeptical of the back hatch but it proved to be very useful for quick deposits as we sped thru lines. The avalanche probe pockets worked well for the collapisble cane and the side pouches kept the cameras at ready. I may suggest that the next series has the addition of a built in LED disco ball for visiual identification in a crowd or slope. I am sure it makes a fine ski pack as well! October 16, 2012
