"I used the Primero guiding on Mt. Rainier last summer and love it for that kind of mission. I got a lot of nice comments from clients and random climbers alike saying that this pack marked a true rededication of The North Face® to pack building. Doesn't get much better than that in our inbred, backbiting industry. The expanding pocket is awesome. Pack lid is very well designed and thoughtfully engineered." - Pete Athans, high-altitude mountaineer, best-known for being the only non-sherpa to summit Mt. Everest seven times.
