Review on Exploring the Outdoors: Gregory Mountain πŸ”οΈ Hydration Backpack - Stay Hydrated on Your Adventures! by Brett Gilbert

Revainrating 5 out of 5

Worth the money

I'm returning to hiking (day and night) after a break of almost 10 years. While I usually avoid spending big bucks on something like a daypack, I bought this one on recommendation. I'm glad I did. I remember the discomfort that comes with daypacks from my earlier hiking days, but this pack was about as comfortable as it could have been. So far I've taken it on 3 10-12 mile cross country training hikes with about 2000ft of elevation gain and a 20lb load and I can safely say this is the most comfortable daypack I've ever had..either was . Second hand. The included hydration pouch is high quality and the magnetic chest strap/mouthpiece is comfortable. The shoulder straps are comfortable, as is the rear suspension and drop strap. Multiple pockets help keep things neatly organized and accessible. So far I haven't had a single chaff or sore from any pressure point on this pack. Can't recommend enough and will definitely look to Gregory for my night bag. The only negative for me is that only green mantis was available, which doesn't particularly bother me. I can't think of anything else that I don't like.
