My plan after lightening my tent from a 4 lb Hubba Hubba to a 2.5 lb Tarptent is to reduce my empty pack weight from a 3 lb Gregory Z55 to a lighter (preferably around 2 lb) pack. I am really leaning towards internal frame designs.
Exos 58 or 46?
Are there other internal frame designs worth considering? I carry a Big Agnes Insulated Air Core, so using a foam pad to act as a frame for a pack is out of the question.
If I do end up plunging for a frameless, though, what do you all think? I prefer to stick with a pack I can buy from a major retailer in case I need to return it.
The GoLite packs look attractive to me.
