at 30l they are pretty much all the same. it all comes down to durability. you can get a really light one that will rip, or a really heavy one that will last forever. they are pretty much just bookbags at that size, the only difference is material.

Is a 38L big enough for a weekend backcountry hike?

The Thule Capstone 32 looks pretty comfy, has a tensioned mesh back that actually allows your back to breathe. And a good padded hip belt with pockets, which is rare as fuck where packs of that size are concerned. Pity it isn't carry-on size though, makes it utterly useless.

pretty much every pack that size has a belt. none of them are good. but most of them have somthing.

and how is your 32l not carry on size? i have crammed my 40l into that box more than once.

i have a crux ak-47. I use two 5 liter deuter external side pockets i strap to the compression straps, if i take the frame out and put it in the backpack diagonally, put the external side pockets inside the bag, and compress it really well, it becomes cary-on size, while it expands to a 57 liter bag.

Depends on what you want to use it for, 30 is a wee bit small for anything more than 2 days and you have to pack very carefully.

I have an Arcteryx Khard 45L that I use on 3 day trips which I think is a good size.

This might be the most retarded question, but when they say '30L' or '35L' does that mean that you can fit that much water inside the bag?

Litre is a measurement of volume. So, yes.

the difference between a 2 day trip and a 3 day trip is only <1 lb of food (assuming dry, and cooking with water). All the other gear is the same. How could a bag possibly be good for 2 days but not 3?

Yeah I don't bring dry food, I'm still a bit of a noob in terms of /out/, three days is the longest period of time I've spent outside.

I also don't really do long trips when it's warm, so I bring extra clothes and stuff for warmth.

They're not all the same. Quality still needs to be there. Bad stitching, crap materials, shitty craftsmanship. All those can still be present in any size bag.

What anon didn't mention is that you have to buy the bag, and then you have to spend more money upgrading the hipbelt and harness.
