Well it's not new. I did someone a good turn today and they gave me this in return. I'm well chuffed. Just need to give it a clean and waxing. What I'm really pleased about is that it will sit between my Norwiegen Telemark pack and my Yugoslavian Haversack. It can be used for summer overnighters or longer day hikes if some extra room is needed. So I now have all the packs I will ever need. Phew
