spent another day shopping for trekking gear... i tried on loads of backpacks and finally settled on the deuter race exp air (3L water and 12 L cargo).my requirements:
- light/small
- small shoulder straps that don't rub
- hydration system
- aircomfort (frame is off your back - reduces sweat by 25%)
- pole straps
turns out i ended up with a biking pack. clearly there are no pole straps but it does have a few extra features:
- helmet holder (my waterproofs and pole fit in very nicely)
- light reflectors (in case i get lost in the dark!)
- "high flow" valve (enables me to chug water at amazing speed)
