Deuter packs

This past labor day weekend i had the opportunity to try out the new Deuter EXP 12 hydration pack instead of my old trusty Deuter Crossair pack on some longish trail rides over in the Big Hole valley. The EXP 12 is a little smaller than my crossair but still large enough (850 cu in) to pack plenty of food, a 3 liter bladder which comes with the pack, a few trailside repair tools, a rainjacket, and of course a full sized camera. The pack sat nice on my back once i had all of the straps properly adjusted and their Airstripes comfort system was pretty comfy too. Price - $99

another nice feature is their built in rain cover that sits in a small zippered pouch at the very bottom of the bag. Perfect for keeping gadgets safe and dry.
