The Berghaus Munro was always a daypack crying out for MOLLE. Now there is one similar http://www.rvops.co.uk/disciple-daysac-multicam-2544.html but not sure on the multicam.

I have just bought one of these, colour is good for locality (New Forest) for most times of the year, and the three utility pouches are perfect for water, stove & rations.
The zipped centre pouch will store my basha and stove wind shield and the top pocket will have first aid and sanitry items in.
I have been using a Northern Ireland Patrol sack but felt the DPM was a bit "waltish" when Mrs Strangely Brown and myself were visiting bird reserves and the like.
The mesh side pockets are ideal for basha poles (which I don't carry) but good for small flasks and I daresay a Golock or saw would go in ok.

I have one. I have the medium size one as well. They're great packs but the Large in the ad has to be used with the frame and I doubt if it comes with it at that price. The medium can be used with or without the frame. They're both excellent and more than roomy enough as well as being virtually bulletproof. It's compatible with the Vietnam era ALICE clips and the older wire equipment hangers.
Probably the best thing about them is related to their age; they were designed in the Vietnam era and remained in service through the late 1980s. Consequently there are literally thousands (possibly tens of thousands) of them on the surplus market and there are dozens of upgrades available for them (newer, wider, softer straps; newer buckles and hardware; etc)

SOme of those look awfully heavy for a day pack. My current favourite day pack is the REI Flash 18. Only weighs 300 grams, 18 litres, hydration compatible. Turn inside out to use as a stuff sack in my 60l back pack.

Easily takes the ten essentials plus food and water for a day trip or summit attempt.
REI is a Co-op, I put my dividend for 2010 towards this pack and only paid USD 5 for it.
