🎒 Ultimate Performance: Gregory Mountain Products Men's Citro 36 H2O Hydration Backpack Review

Good solid construction with plenty of storage space. Even after filling with three liters of water, there is enough storage space for a long day of hiking. Love it and for longer night hikes you need a bigger Gregory pack. Good value for money!

I've recently become interested in hiking. Didn't know too much about choosing a good backpack. Except for when I was in the army a few decades ago.

Remember that when fully loaded you have about 30 liters of packing space left. I'm always skeptical…

Bought for a 14 (or two) and some small hikes in late September. It's too big for a 14, but I also wanted something more forward-thinking that I could take with me on other hikes, camping, or flights (its dimensions are close enough to make up for that). To be honest, the physical dimensions of a 36L backpack aren't much larger than a 24L backpack, so keep that in mind when weighing your options.
