[at-l] Gregory G Pack

[yumitori@xxxxxxxxxxx (Ron Martino)]

> Stopped in Campmor Saturday where I spotted the new Gregory G Pack. I am as
> hapless as the next guy - maybe more so -  when it comes to choosing a pack
> that actually works as well on the trail as it promises in the store. The G
> Pack is rated to 25# but I didn't have time to give it a fair test since the
> display model was filled with about 8# of paper and bubblewrap. A realistic
> load might change my opinion but it snugged close to my back without any
> futzing and carried comfortably.  Knowing my limitations, I don't take the
> bait on the first pass of the hook, but I'm not sure I can resist too much
> longer. I was impressed by the suspension system on this 2# 7oz medium
> model, which has the look and feel of a much heavier pack. Second, it may be
> an optical illusion but the 2900 inch pack bag looks closer to 4000 cubes.
> It should do me for at least a 5-day trip in the summer. Third surprise was
> the price - $149. If this is to be my next mistake, then at least it won't
> be as costly as some.
