I can't seam to find this information anywhere online, and I know a few of you have this bag, so here's a few questions about th '04 model.

So it comes with the detachable day pack, but it also says, "Travel pocket duffel." So it comes with another duffel bag as well? And this doubles as a rain fly, or that's something else?

The bag is 4300 cu. in. without the "extendable lid" filled up? Or with it filled? I'm hoping this bag isn't too big for me. I want all the room, but I also don't want a huge bothersome bag.

What is this "hip lid?" It "converts to belt with hip pack?"

Sorry, these may seem like silly questions, but I can't find any good descriptions of this bag anywhere. And how is it as far as comfort? For example, would I want to hike the Inca Trail with this bag on my back? I need one bag for everything.

Also, does it have any straps to compress the bag down? Does it have a pocket for a sleeping bag? Anything else I should know?

Thanks!
