Hi there,
I think I definitely need a (much) bigger rucksack than the one I had last time I went to Broadstone Warren.
The 21 liters of my bag are now ridiculous.
Since I'm now seriously considering camping and going outdoor regularly, I'm thinking of investing in a good Rucksack for the next months (and hopefully years) to come.
I understand that camping for 3 days is different than for one week but it is unlikely I will exceed a 3 days camping (but who knows ?)
As far as I'm concerned I see the following criteria:
Capacity: 35 liters might be a bit small...but 45 liters can get quite heavy too. Less is more ? Or is it better to have a 45 liters bag left a bit empty or having a 35 liters bag completely full ?
Structure and designs: I'm a newbie here.
Size, weight and shape: I'm assuming you ALWAYS have to find the rucksack that fits YOU and not the other way around. I'm happy to have your feedback on different brands that make their rucksacks available in different sizes. I also think the weight of the bag when empty is quite critical ?
I would like to find something that has rather good ergonomics.
I have probably forgotten essential parameters, but I'm happy to learn from you since you have much more experience than me on this.
During the last meeting at Broadstone Warren, I've tried the Karrimor Sabre 45. I kind of liked the additional pockets on each sides, but this bag is quite impressive. Not for the faint of heart.
Thanks a lot.
Bruce
