Good pack with a few minor complaints
Awesome safety features, but wish there were a few things different. The straps use metal fasteners that come loose pretty quickly so I'm constantly have to tighten the hip belt and shoulder straps. To turn the bag on and off, you have to unzip the cover on the fan, which is hard if you have a bag full of gear. The screen on the fan that shows the battery status is nearly impossible to see. Outside of these actual pretty petty complaints, I really like the bag. I like the separate section for avy gear and I really like the side stash pocket for easy access to water without taking my pack off.
The Buckles don't keep the pack tight.
I have never returned something to REI. This pack with its metal buckles are TERRIBLE. 12 mile tour and the pack was constantly looseningBoot packing only made it worse with the added weight. All of the other features are spot on. It's the dang buckles.
