Just bought one; free shipping if you use UPS ground and no sales tax. $89.99 total. I'm finally going lightweight and it feels good, baby!

Bought one from Travel Country a few months ago (of course I missed the sale!!) It's a nice pack for transitioning to lightweight. Hope you enjoy it as much as I have!

I haven't used it yet, but it looks well made and designed. It's so much lighter than my old pack; I must have shaved several pounds off my load in one fell swoop. I'll put it to the test in mid September when I go backpacking in southern Colorado or northern New Mexico.

I find the Pinnacle great for ULers who have more volume than the average UL hiker. For instance, I carry a hammock, which, when combined with 2 quilts, takes up a lot more volume than a tarp and 1 quilt.

Make no mistake, this is an UL pack and not a stepping stone. At 1 lb 10 oz, it's just 3 oz heavier than its smaller cousin, and pack that is sometimes synonymous with UL hiking, the Jam2.
