<description>Osprey Packs Argon 85 Backpack - 5100-5500cu in&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;I live in Colorado and hike 14er&#x27;s; usually day hikes.  Next season, I am planning a 4/day 3/night hike where we will summit 3 14ers.  The base camp is 10 miles away from the trail head.  Is this too large of a pack for this trip?  I thought I might carry my camel-pack back for summiting in this pack.  Your advice?</description>

I was wondering if this pack or any similar have zips around the sides so it can be opened like a normal suitcase. I am not hiking, but I want a large pack for my travels with easy accessiblity.</description>

I&#x27;m considering buying it because of the extra compartments, and size/capacity, but I&#x27;m not sure if it&#x27;s appropriate for travelling or is it just geared towards trekking? Does the interior have enough spaces for clothes?Thank-you</description>

<description>Kelty Red Cloud Backpack - 5000-6650 cu in&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;Hey all,I&#x27;m brand new pup to all of this. I&#x27;m starting to plan an extended trip to begin in about 6months. I would like to be able to live out of a pack in wilderness and urban settings. I&#x27;ve traveled before but never like this. I&#x27;m looking for any and all tips on: gear, destinations, travel habits... you name I want to know. Or if there is a good book/website that I can use as a resource. Thanks.</description>

<description>Osprey Packs Luna  85 Backpack - Women&#x27;s - 5100cu in&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;I&#x27;m moving to South America...I plan on doing some exploring on the way to my final destination, but more of the hostel scene... Will this pack be sufficient? I have the Osprey Aero 35 and it&#x27;s great for a weekend pack, but not for taking a year&#x27;s worth of clothes...What&#x27;s the minimum volume pack I should buy? I&#x27;m 5&#x27;8&#x27;&#x27; and pretty strong with broad shoulders, so I&#x27;m not worried about being able to handle it, I just want to make sure I have the option to carry a lot of gear!

<description>Osprey Packs Argon 85 Backpack - 5100-5500cu in&#x3C;br /&#x3E;&#x3C;br /&#x3E;I&#x27;ve always been concerned with organizing my gear and how to structure my load in relation to access needs with Ospreys. I&#x27;ve used a Jansport Rockies 100 for years and have become quite fond of the ability to compartmentalize in the external pockets. How does the Argon work for getting at your stuff? Also, I&#x27;m generally carrying a Garcia 812 bear can and wondered if anyone else had any experiences with how this affects the usable/accessable internal volume, as well as whether the material tension when loaded (I mean, to the gills) made getting into the external compartments a pain.</description>
