Another hot topic.
Like many things on this list, it is all personal preference. Money?? It
matters to some. Ease of packing?? To others. Weight?? Still another choice.
Easy to find?? Same idea. Latest and greatest?? Maybe.
I have always used inexpensive, external frame, Jansport packs. I don't have
10,000 days/hours in my pack. I do have 6 Philmont treks as an adult.
Worked fine for me. Might not for you. Educate yourself. Do what is right for
you!! Have fun!!!
