Comments about High Sierra Explorer 55 Internal Frame Pack: I bought this pack two years ago and it's still in a perfect condition. This being my first pack I cannot really compare it to anything else but I can say that in term of storage, the High Sierra 55 is great. There's plenty of room in or out the bag, plus it comes with a rain coat! My sleepingbag is very bulky (too bulky!) but I can still strap it with the bottom straps without having to put it IN the bag and lose vital space for other stuff.

Q:
can this fit a bigger insulated sleeping bag and a tentAsked on 10/18/2012 by Boyscout1 answer

There is a divider between the top compartment and the lower sleeping bag compartment. This divider can be removed which will allow bulkier winter bags to be carried.Answered on 10/18/2012 by Steve from Campmor
Q:
would this carry a CamelBak Antidote 100 oz. Replacement ReservoirAsked on 6/19/2012 by Anonymous1 answer
A:

Q:
i'm 12 so is this a kid backpack. IF my waist is 29 will it fit meAsked on 6/10/2012 by tnbikerboy1 answer
A:
To determine if this pack will fit you, you would need to measure your torso length.
How to measure your torso length?
Have a friend measure your back. Stand with your back to them and your hands on your hips like you are scolding someone. Your thumbs will point to a stop on your lower spine. Start from this point and measure up to the C-7 vertebrae, which is the one that sticks out of the back of your neck when you touch your chin to your chest. The measurement between these 2 points is your torso length.
The smallest this packs hip belt will draw down to is 34". With a 29" waist this will not secure to your hips.
The The North Face Terra 55 Youth Pack would have a hip belt that will fit your waist size
