Not exactly UL at 9.2oz, but definitely serves double duty…stuff a sleeping bag and a couple extra socks, and also use as a day trip bag…

I've been looking for something like this for a trip to Yellowstone, where we pack in, then day trip fly fish for trout, in which case I'd have to pack a lunch, bladder, rainjacket, and a flybox.

Whattya think? Other options? I'd like to not consider the Oware version as my buddy brought it last year and it just seemed a little weak for what we were carrying all day, I know his shoulders got sore…

All thoughts welcome!

Hi Casey,

I've use the OR Summit Sack, also tested here by Will, and find its biggest limitation is that it's too darn big. The Dry Peak Bagger seem to be an ideal size, and while not light if it's made like the Summit Sack will be both tough and waterproof. I'd prefer it have mesh bottle pockets, but the pouch on back can probably handle a water bladder.

If you can possibly test before you buy, check to see whether the shoulder straps roll on you. That's one issue I have with the Summit Sack, which I more or less fixed by adding a sternum strap.

Casey,

I know Dale tried one. His gear list using it is in the Gear List Forum.
