Teton Daypacks; Packable, Lightweight, Comfortable Backpack for Hiking and Travel; Overnight Bag

Good

Versatile ultralite comfortable pack I used in the Ho Rain Forest during summer for a 5 day trip. I'm 5 foot 1 and can only carry 25 pounds. I use ultra light camping gear for back packing. I love the side pockets, for emergency kit and toilet stuff. It could use more straps but was designed as a day pack

I bought it 6 years ago and still in good condition. Might be a little dirty but really useful. I went to about 12 hiking trips, 5 international trips and 6 domestic trips. There no rips and scratches to the bag.

This is the second Teton backpack for me and while I haven't had a chance to use it yet, it appears to be just as sturdy as my older smaller one.This is meant to be a skiing backpack big enough to fit extra gloves, lunch and other misc items for myself and 3 kids. The idea was that it can be flat enough, yet have enough capacity to fit all of this without being too bulky. This seem to fit the bill perfectly.It's also got a nice sturdy back, which is good to have for active sports as extra back protection, and good support with chest and belly straps.The pocket on the bottom strap is not big enough for a 6" screen phone, but it can fit couple of granola bars for easy access.I'm hoping it'd perform and last as well as my other Teton.

This is a nice little pack for a day or two out. This is my third Teton pack and as with the others, my only complaint is getting them fully adjusted to my torso and hip placement is a bear. The other issue is the lack of rigidity in the frame sheet, but I plan on fixing that by adding an additional support sheet.Pros:Great size and better organization optionsLightweightGood padding on the back and straps.Built in rainflyCons:Only one routing hole for hydration bladderLack of rigidity in the frame sheet (but good aluminum stay so this can be a neutral)The color is god awful.Lack of padding on the hip belt (this is the most important con)Other than that, this is a great 1-2+ day pack and the quality for the price is excellent. I recommended this as with other Teton packs.

My wife used this backpack about 4 times before our big trip to hike to the bottom of the Grand Vanyon and back up.The strap that secured around her waist broke halfway thru the hike, so for the next 6 hours it was not secure and bounced around.Very disappointed.

My original backpack lasted 3 years, the last 2 started falling apart after 6 months :-/

I saw the Cirque 1600 recommended in a hiking video. Ordered both the 1600 and the Pursuit 2000. Looking for a smaller pack with more room to pack than my Osprey 22. I hiked 5KM with the Pursuit packed with 10 lbs. and noticed it was much more tiring on my shoulders than the Osprey. It doesn't seem to distribute the weight as well through the hips, which probably translates to more packing space. I'm over 65 so you may be able to get away with less hip support. Otherwise, a nice pack. Good luck getting the rain cover out of the Pursuit. It's velcroed into its sack at the bottom. The Cirque 1600 has the rain cover in the top pocket, which seems like a waste of a very accessible spot. I would move it elsewhere.
