## Our verdict

### Reasons to buy

-   Lightweight which is truly convenient since this is an outdoor backpack.
-   Weatherproof and highly durable.
-   Features a lot of attachment points for your other outdoor tools such as an ice axe, ropes, etc.
-   Features a side zipper access to the main compartment so you won't have to undo the top flap when you need to pull something located at the bottom.

### Things to consider

-   Could use some water bottle pocket/s.
-   Small external pockets would be appreciated.

> When conditions soured, we reached for the Verglas. A PFC-free DWR treatment and waterproof PU coating work in tandem to keep out precip (caveat: it’s not seam-taped, so no dunking). In the name of testing, one Alaskan adventurer took the Verglas packrafting down the Knik River in nasty conditions.
