Hi all, I currently own 35 and 50 litre sacks, both pretty old, and want something a bit smaller/lighter (flexible, but ~25 litres.)
It'll be used for days out walking with my wife, plus days out sport climbing or bouldering (in the latter case it'll just be stashed inside a folded pad.)
Essential features include waist/chest straps and a rope compression strap. I'll use it often with a rope bag strapped under the rope strap when I go sport climbing. Ideally I'd like some form of pocket big (ie long) enough to take a folded os map or small (bmc size) guidebook. I want something that will stand up to some abuse.
I've looked up a load of websites and found the following options: does anyone have any of the following and can provide good/bad feedback?
Thanks!
