Absolutely great pack. It truly has the best of both "a pocket for everything" and the main top loader benefits. More durable than REI's previous ultra light packs, and the proportions are just right. Can't say enough about this great pack.

Pack looks nice, but what's up with REI and assuming everyone is short? 20 inch torso for the large? What?

Q.} While trying to sleep in the backcountry my mind wants to stay in alert mode at night causing considerable sleep loss. I've tried OTC sleep aids and melatonin (3 mg) to only modest success. Any additional suggestions would be very appreciated.

A.} Some standard things I ask include: Does your pad pad you enough? Is your bag comfy and warm enough? Do you create a pillow thick enough--or too thick?
