Has anyone tried out the Gregory Thru Hiker pack?  I am hiking the A.T. North to
South starting in July and was wondering if this pack is a good choice.   I own 
a Gregory Evolution external frame pack and it is awesome for weekend trips, so 
I think gregory is a good brand but this pack looks like it is either really 
good or really bad.  I was also looking at the Wind River from Gregory.  This 
one seems to heavy but also has alot of features unlike the Thru Hiker.  For 
instance the zippered sleeping bag compartment.  I think it wold suck to have to
remove all your clothes and gear to get to your bag.  Any comments or advice 
would be appreciated.
