Arc'teryx Borea Backpack - 2750-2990 cu in



Big and lots of pockets.
Carries with the same plush comfort of the entire Bora series but with that comes the extra weight. Not your "light is right" backpack. Excellent access to tools, however -- modified kangaroo pocket fits the large size Voile alum shovel. Although there are extra attachment points for a shovel handle, the probe pocket is big enough to accommodate a 12' probe, shovel handle, tent poles... Despite the numerous organization pockets, it's still a pretty clean design. The fairly large volume might be too big for a lot of day trippers, but it has good cinch straps, and you don't have to fill it, right?


Dramatic
I've only carried it a few times, but I had about 45 pounds of books and water, and the hip belt was perfect. It's really firm, but shaped just right and the pack fit me very well. I love the features. It's pretty monochromatic, but you can tell it's a top shelf rucksack. I think I'll be using it for everything for years if it doesn't get nicked.


Very comfortable pack
The Arc'teryx Borea Backpack (2750-2990 cu in) is extremely well made and very comfortable to wear. I didn't stress test it in the outdoors, but used it for backpacking through Italy for a month. It could probably be a little bit bigger for that, but with the addition of a small duffel bag, that was plenty. The bag looks incredibly good, is very sturdy and has plenty of straps and the like for different purposes.
