Love this hiker's bag and camera combo

I love this hiker's bag and camera combo. Although I would like something more. I recently used it on a trip to Glacier National Park. I could fit two camera bodies and three lenses in, and fill the top compartment with my travel essentials. The bag was very comfortable to carry - I hardly noticed that it was on my back and out of the way when I had to bend down for a shot or walk through an area. The side pockets take water bottles very well and also held my tripod well. I think a few people on one of my hikes still thought I was going to attack them with my tripod because it wasn't entirely stable - it was just too big. I had a more compact tripod at home, but I left it because it weighed more - such a tripod would probably be more stable. One minus - it is difficult to fit a large lens in it. I only had a Nikkor 200-500 telephoto lens for this trip and it was quite difficult to take it out of the box when I needed it. If you have mirrorless or smaller cameras and lenses you won't have a problem, but larger lenses and larger cameras are narrower.
