ULA is my choice and I have over $50 postage to add.
That ULA Camino looks good. The load weights seem a little light though, however I really don't know about this stuff yet so it could just be my perception. Is 40lbs good for a pack that size?
I love my ULA catalyst. I barely notice it is on when I am wearing it.
Hmmm I see now thats a pack for ultra-lightist. I'm not sure I want to go the ultralight route first starting out.
My son and I both own ULAs. Mine was custom, and after I discussed the order with the owner (Chris), the man was going to sew the pack called me personally before he got started to confirm my custom work, and he even made a few suggestions. Doesn't get any better than talking to the person sewing you pack. I doubt I will ever go anywhere else. I am one very satisified customer.

My ULA Ohm 2.0 held up very well on my thru-hike.
ULA are currently offering choice of colours!

My choice is zpacks http://zpacks.com/backpacks.shtml They just came out with a new design (that I want!)
My day pack is from Tough Traveler in Schenectady N.Y. and it's the most comfortable one I've ever owned. I know they make bigger packs but i've never tried them.
Another vote for the ULA Circuit. With 4 or 5 days of food packed, I'm pleased to have room left over.
American made packs...suggestions?

You can't really consider ULA ultralight any more. A world of packs that weigh a third of what they do. You might as well start out lightweight, otherwise, you'll be doing it in a year. Evolve.Originally Posted by KDOG

Really? I seen that they offered the camo version but nothing else. Anyone have pictures? I did not see anything on their site.

Those color choices were just a temporary offering.

Gotta put in another vote for a ULA Catalyst. I hike "kinda lightish" keeping things under 30 pounds - Love love love this pack. Holds 7 days of food easy. And other luxury items. Of course, it always depends on what you want.
