>>873008>68 litersI looked at this for a while and found that number includes the whole pack, the pockets, big mesh pocket, hip belt pockets. The main compartment is only 39 liters, not enough because I need to carry a bear canister in some locations. I decided to go with a pack that i've been wanting anyway, but was hesitant due to the $350 dollar price. I just ordered a Windrider 3400 by Hyperlite Mountain Gear. I'm drunk so the price doesn't hurt so much right now
