Under Hot Deals, Campmor has the Gregory Advent Pro, all four sizes, available for $80 down from $150. The medium is a 2 1/2 lb pack and the volume is not tremendous, but it might be just right for some. It seems to be made out of Good Stuff.
If you are looking specifically for the Advent Pro, you should check out http://www.hermitshut.com They have a surprisingly large selection of backpacks – Arc'Teryx, Gregory, Ospres…you name it. I enjoy giving my business to the specialty shops, you know, they paved the way for the Sports Authorities and REI's of today. Anyhow, that's my schpiel. You should check them out.
Well back to the pack…
When not using my Mariposa Plus I enjoy this pack.
I did however cut off all the extras I personally would not use. It carries well and is very comfortable.
I love the helmet feature…it fits my Crocs just right :)
