that's what it's listed as on the LL Bean webpage....click on the link she included if you wanna take a gander40 liters is what I now carry because I bring a small duvet or sleeping bag. Before that I used a 40l. Bigger than this and you will need discipline packing to make sure you are not packing items you don't need. At 2 pounds 12 ounces I find it a bit heavy though, but if it fits and you don't have to buy a pack, go for it.
Question: you call it a "day pack". Why?
I was hoping the OP was not thinking of using it as a day pack while shipping something even heavier ahead with the mochileros.that's what it's listed as on the LL Bean webpage....click on the link she included if you wanna take a gander
Yeah, last July-August I could have easily gotten away with a pack under 30L. It's just that the OP was offered use of that 40L for free.I get by with a 28L!
Exactly. "Free" speaks volumes, if it's comfortable when training with the gear she plans to bring.Yeah, last July-August I could have easily gotten away with a pack under 30L. It's just that the OP was offered use of that 40L for free.
The size of the pack looks good, and it's not too heavy, but will the same pack that fits your sister fit you? By the dimensions that you gave it looks like it is the small size that your sister have. I recommend that you get fitted for a back pack, so that you know how a properly fitting back pack feels, then try your sister's back pack.Hello all! What is the current thinking on how large a pack is needed for the Camino from St. Jean to Santiago. My sister has an AT 40 L.L. Bean Day Pack that she has offered me to borrow. The dimensions being 26½"H x 13"W x 6"D. This is the link to the bag description on LL Beans website:

Do you think this will be large enough or should I perhaps consider buying a larger pack, and if so what size? Thank so much for the help!
A much more definitive method would be to collect together your packing list, and see if it all fits. If you are in doubt about what to pack, there is plenty of good advice on this forum, and if you post a list, there are many members willing to share their experience about what might be required.

I finally looked at the LLBean link. A mi, as they say in Spain, the model is posing with a too-short pack and he's holding the straps away in front to make it look more comfortable than it is. It is worth asking what experience the pack in question has actually had: does it just carry the picnic on a short stroll with the kiddoes? Or has it worked well on a trip that involved walking for 6 or so hours two or three days in a row?My apologies first for not reading you link to LL Bean and secondly for not reading all the post on this thread.
Here is my personal experience about an LL Bean pack. I observed someone I was walking with who had a slight frame and who was constantly complaining about how badly she felt in her back and waist, the pack was so ill fitted I tried to help her with adjustments with no avail. She has since bought a new pack from a reputable outfitter who took one look at the LL Bean pack when she asked for advice about how to correct the fit and he told her to trash it.
I have a dueter 40 L and it was a good size for me. My buddy had a outdoor gear 60L that was not fully packed. They weighed around 23-24 lbs. 10-11 kg.
