Finally pulled the trigger on a 10-day pack. Considered the Gregory Baltoro 75 for features ("free" rain cover, removable hydration UL daypack), the Osprey Aether 70 cuz Osprey and ended up with pic related.
At the price point, it seemed unbeatable (dat 20% off REI coupon). I also liked the design - which allows for easily carrying a rifle tucked behind the side pocket and held steady by 2 compression straps with the stock in the bottom mesh pocket.
Did I do good?
