Please help. I have decided to buy a new backpack for next year and have narrowed it down to either the kestrel 48 or the atmos 50. I like the look of both but each have their own special features that I like.
Weight wise I carry between 15 and 40 pounds depending on the trip which is in the recommended load range of both packs.
The biggest problem I have is that there are no shops selling Osprey packs near where I live (the nearest is 8 hours’ drive away) so I would have to buy it from a web shop which rules out taking my gear to the shop and trying them on.
Therefore I was hoping that all the members that have experience of either of these two packs would be good enough to share their views with me in the form of a vote. I will then make a decision based on the most popular.
Many thanks in advance
