Picatta - now that's just funny about the pink! Yes, if you'll be running into cooler weather you just may need that sleeping bag! I wore the pack around with me while I did yard work last Thursday. I put about 4 pounds in it. I just planted, weeded, watered...BUT! It was 90 degrees and 80...- Lynnmcd

@Piccata: I'll be interested to know where you end up putting what. I'm not taking a tent or sleeping bag...are you? Also, just so you know, while the color online looked like a really light lavender with darker mauve accents it's WAY darker. I was a bit disappointed at first but, all in all...- Lynnmcd

So...just to follow up with you all: I received both the women's medium Jade 38 and the men's medium Z40 and took them for a bit of a tour. All in all I couldn't make heads or tails regarding the difference between them. In the end, I kept the Jade, returned the Z40. Why? Because the Jade I...- Lynnmcd

Smart Packing and Unexpected Backpack Items
:shock: WOW! What a great list so far! A quick question regarding sharp objects (esp. Swiss Army knives) - were you sending your packs through on the planes as opposed to carrying them on? I ask because I lost my beloved Swiss knife on my last flight as I always carried it everywhere so I...- Lynnmcd

Oh...hadn't thought about the aspect of carry-on...just thought the 38 would be fine. So, what are the conditions that make packs meet the carry-on criteria? And thanks for the info re the REI sale! I used to live in Eugene, OR and I remember that. Where I live now they just don't have such...- Lynnmcd

Such a great thread here! So I went back to REI and actually got the right sales person to help me. No, he's never done the Camino, but he's done just about everything else :-) And everyone is correct in saying that you just don't know what to get til you actually try them on. I went in...- Lynnmcd

Bwwahaha! :D Well, that is just Vulcan logic in all its splendor! You are correct! The person who tried to get me to go with the expedition pack?....was from *cough* REI. They claimed to have done the Camino and that I really needed that to carry everything. Thanks for the heads up!- Lynnmcd

Hi there, Vagabondette! So, this seems to be a day hiker pack...but it held up as an expedition pack? Were you able to carry everything you needed inside or did you strap stuff on the front as well? I love the look of it....but I was told, "you need and expedition pack!" and those are pretty...- Lynnmcd
