      I've tried a lot of packs but keep coming back to my Osprey Raptor 14, which thanks to all the well- thought out pockets holds everything I need and is slim enough that it basically disappears on my back. Can't recommend it enough.

    Great review thank you! I bough this pack myself after watching. I thoroughly enjoy it. Perfect day pack. It has a lot of thought and technology out into it. I bought the blue one. It even looks great.

    • @SouthernHike
      @SouthernHike  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Great! I think you will totally enjoy it. We love ours. We did a 8 mile hike with them yesterday and still have been the best pack for over a year now! Thank you for watching!

    Thanks for the review. I was looking for info on the Sirrus 24 to compare with the Skimmer 28. I ended out going with the Skimmer for the extra space (my 11 year old hikes with me and she carries minimal gear in her small walmart pack, so mom gets the heavier load). We are planning on some weekend trips in the Spring so I'll eventually get a bigger pack for those trips and let her carry the Skimmer on those.

    • @SouthernHike
      @SouthernHike  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Glad you enjoyed Jess. Skimmer is a great choice also! Thanks for watching. Happy Hiking!

    Thanks, good review. I like that you have a year under your belt (or on your back) with these, using them exactly like I would. I want to carry my camera gear and a small ham radio. I have a micro43 setup, but adding the radio, which is about the size of a canon 70-200 would bring me back into DSLR sizing.

    • @SouthernHike
      @SouthernHike  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you for watching! Glad you enjoyed. I think it would be a good fit! I carry my camera gear all the time in mine.

  • @cimarronwoo
    @cimarronwoo 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Your review is well done. Thanks. Did you notice the two lower compression straps on the sides about the left & right side pockets (aka water bottle pockets)? These straps can be adjusted to go either on the outside/around the pocket to help hold items in the pocket, or they can go inside the pocket to help compress the main compartment. Look for the small holes in the pockets to insert or pull out the strap. It looks like your left strap was outside/around the pocket while your right one was inside the pocket. I think this is the factory setup. If you like it that way, great. Just know you have options on both sides as the need arises.

    • @SouthernHike
      @SouthernHike  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you Michael! Based on what I read on the REI website 2 liters is the max.

  • @airmck1

    Thanks for the great review! Appreciate the real life experience after you've been using them for a year. Can the hip pockets fit a phone? Like a standard iPhone 11/12 size phone?

      It might fit but be tight 😬

    Thanks for the great information. I've been researching some daypacks and am thinking of gifting this pack to my daughter. She is 5'9". May I ask how tall the female is in your video? Thank you!

    • @SouthernHike
      @SouthernHike  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thank you for watching! So Rachael is 5"8" so she would be for sure in the same range and she loves hers. Just be cautious that you need to take torso length in consideration also. Let me know if you have any other questions!

  • @donaldstrader7241
    @donaldstrader7241 ปีที่แล้ว

    ...but you didn't do any sound level checks with the built in whistle (sternum strap clip). LOL. I purchased the Stratus 24 for a trip and was watching to see someone else's use, since I have not used it yet. Thanks for the video.

    which is more comfortable, the sirrus or the tempest? I am looking for a comfortable and breathable hiking backpack for several hours, especially for hiking for several hours a day and the osprey daylite plus is not worth it, I need another backpack ... I usually carry 4 kilograms of weight at most ...

    • @SouthernHike
      @SouthernHike  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Thanks for watching! I’m sorry we don’t have any experience with the tempest. I do know it’s smaller.

    I noticed you didnt mention the load lifter straps. Does yours not have them? I have a Sirrus and that is one of my favorite parts (plus the velcro adjustment of the torso length)

    • @SouthernHike
      @SouthernHike  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Your exactly right Jennifer. You found the two things I missed mentioning in this review. Load lifters and torso adjustment are big parts of preventing a sore back from your pack. Thanks for the comment!

  • @deannasmith4405
    @deannasmith4405 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    does the bladder have a place to clip onto to prevent it from falling down ?

    • @SouthernHike
      @SouthernHike  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      I’ll have to check but I think it’s tight pocket so it compresses the bag.

  • @dfella

    @Ginasgusa ปีที่แล้ว

    Can you show how to attach the poles or ice axe? There is only one loop. One loop for 2 poles? I am on,y 5’ and 100 lbs. 2 poles in one loop with make me lopsided. Nope, not for me, never buying pack with just one loop. Poor design.

    • @SouthernHike
      @SouthernHike  ปีที่แล้ว

      It's just a ice axe loop. They don't advertise it as for trekking poles.
