Hello folks - when I walked last year I used a 48l kestrel from Osprey http://www.ospreyeurope.com/gb_en/v...trel-series/kestrel-48?color=120#.VN54sy6Bkg4
I was reasonably happy with it... plenty of space and it was comfortable and no rubbing anywhere or uncomfortable straps.
I did find getting my water out of the pocket tricky and often I had to stop and remove the pack... so this wasn't ideal. Also, there are two small zip pockets on the waist that were useful but quite small... bigger pockets would have been useful... not a big deal though.
My husband is looking to buy a new pack for his camino and I am wondering if we should try something else? Even though he'll be using the pack for his week... I could end up using it... so it's a chance to think about different options.
Any recommendations? Or would you say if my pack was comfortable I should stick with it?
Many thanks in advance
