Comments about REI Traverse 30 Pack:

I purchased the 1st generation model of this pack (2009/2010 model?) to use on longer day hikes and it has proved its merit. It appears that there are some minor changes in this new model, but overall the majority of the pack has not changed. The pack is very comfortable as it has sufficiently padded shoulder straps, heavy padding on the back, and a wide hip belt which evenly distributes around the waist. There are numerous locations/pockets to store gear and the included raincover is a nice touch and works well. Easily fits a 3 liter hydration bladder. This pack is very durable and has suffered many trudges through brush with no rips, tears, or punctures.

The downside to this pack is that it only has one set of side compression straps. When loaded with gear, it is difficult to keep the load in the main compartment evenly distributed in the pack. Packs that have upper and lower side compression straps make this a non-issue and the gear load remains in place. However, in the Traverse 30 gear tends to migrate toward the base of the pack, making the lower half of the pack bulky.

Overall a good pack for a day hike with plently of storage.

Comments about REI Traverse 30 Pack:

I use this pack most often for school, and it fits comfortably when walking, jogging, or cycling.

I've also taken this pack on several day trips going snowshoeing, hiking, and climbing. The pack has a decent amount of clip in points and pockets to attach snowshoes, helmets, shoes, etc. The big bag carries large or bulky materials with ease.

Comments about REI Traverse 30 Pack:

I use this bag for almost every hike I take. I find it perfect for trips up to 3 days. (I like to pack as light as possible.) It has many features that make it extremely versatile. Hopefully the next model will be made out of lighter weight material, but that would also make it tear easier. The current material is very tough and comfortable.

Comments about REI Traverse 30 Pack:

I use this pack for field work and it has never let me down. I have plenty of space inside the bag, and everything is very accesible. When I am diving, I am able to attach my fins or transect tapes to my bag with the additional straps. Even with lots of weight, the bag still fits comfortably on my back.

Comments about REI Traverse 30 Pack:

I use this bag during my travels in the military. The bag is very spacious for day trips and has numerous lashings points for additional gear. The bag is lightweight and compact and it has plenty of pockets in various sizes. The only thing that I would change on the bag is the buckle on the breathable stash pocket. If you place anything bulky in the pocket, the buckle is difficult to connect because the attach point is mounted solid to the bag.
