Comments about Osprey Kestral 68 Internal Frame Pack: Loaded with 2# Northface bag,Klymit air mattress, Big Agnes seedhouse 1 tent,MSR Pocket Rocket, Coleman Backpack pot,Monarch chair,3 days food, clothes. 30+ mile trip in 3 days 2 nights (800ft. to 1200ft., lots of hills). Pack never let me down. Love the lightweight, had to tighten the shoulder straps about once per mile. Could use more hipbelt padding. It is a keeper!

Best Uses Comments about Osprey Kestral 68 Internal Frame Pack: This is my first new pack in a long time (I had an Alpine Designs if anyone remembers those). This pack is plenty big. I have a lot of the large size Big Agnes stuff and it all fits fine with room for stove, clothes, tomahawk etc. Pros

Comments about Osprey Kestral 68 Internal Frame Pack: I hadn't been overnight back packing for some years. My tripping has been by canoe, and in a canoe it is easy to haul too much along. It took me some effort to fit my gear to the dimensions of a 68 liter pack, but the results were worthwhile. The pack was comfortable and carried well with about 36 lbs onboard. This is a well designed pack with lots of adjustments. Comments about Osprey Kestral 68 Internal Frame Pack: I have only carried this pack for about 75 miles. It has performed flawlessly in the short time I have used it. I think it is well thought out and has everything I have been looking for. How could you go wrong with the warrantee given? I rarely give out 5s on any reviews but I do not have one complaints so five it is. Displaying reviews 1-5 |

Q:
Any suggestions about how to pack a tent in this? I purchased both a Big Anges Lynx Pass 3 and the Kestrel 68 from you and am gearing up for a big trip. Alas, my warmup got rained out. Are the side pockets a good place for the poles?Asked on 2/23/2013 by Bill from Dallas1 answer
A:
The side wand pockets are a great place to put the frame. Just make sure that the compression straps are well secured. You do not want to loose your frame. I would also suggest that you pack the tent body and fly last; It is my experience from many hikes in torrential rains, pack the tent body on top of all the other items in the pack and then the fly. This make a very water tight seal at the top of this top load pack.Answered on 3/4/2013 by Steve from Campmor
Q:
The specifications say:
Capacity:
M-L 4028 cu in.
S-M 4150 cu in.
Isn't this reversed? It seems that the smaller pack would have the smaller capacity. Can you give me some idea in concrete terms (perhaps the size of some object) the difference in size? I'd order the larger pack if you had it in stock.Asked on 2/3/2013 by Jon from United States1 answer
A:
The Osprey Kestral S-M has a capacity of 4028 cu in. The M-L size has a capacity of 4150 cu in.Answered on 2/7/2013 by Anonymous

Is the osprey kestral 68 for men or women?Asked on 5/6/2012 by Anonymous1 answer

That said as long as the torso length is within the range for you and the hip belt is not too big for you a Kestral 68 may work. The woman's has a woman's belt and shoulder harness.Answered on 5/9/2012 by Steve from Campmor
