That does look like a nice pack. Is it good for a tall guy (6' 3.5") ?

I could let you know, I ordered the large and I am 6'4". I tried one on at REI and it seemed to fit well.

Thanks for the tip. Nice to know there are many tall backpackers like myself.

Cheers!

I'm 6'1 and that same pack (large, of course) treated me just wonderfully while in Europe. Also, my torso is disproportionaly large for my height (stubby little legs) so it's probably about on par with 6'4.

Got the pack in yesterday. Fits good, and feels good with about 40 pounds in it. Now all I got to do is graduate.
