It's their lightest pack and holds a bit more gear than the Hybrid. It's called the "Sacrifice". Quick review... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LgqiUkE-V3U JYD #90 A man carries a knife everyday... even to church.

I usually keep in there: Matches (water proof canteen or similar) Leatherman Blast Metal wire Plastic wire Zippo Diamond Sharpener. Fenix L1T v1 flashlight 1 folded garbage pack 2 folded regular plastic bags 3 assorted minigrips (they're handy) Miniatury prying bar Compass First Aid kit (with space blanket) Some paper in plastic bag Water canteen (2nd canteen is in belt if possible) Enough me to survive in case of emergency 24 hours in nature. I usually keep clothes that are 100% cotton or natural materials in summer and as much wool as possible in winter with as little as possible synthetics. My small daypack weights approximately as much as Empty AK-47. I usually have my Dumpster Mutt with Bill Sigle mod on belt and ZT 0500 MUDD folder in pocket. Two good knives and good multi tool and skills I learned in army about survival. I learned in army how little man can survive so I kinda became minimalist but last years I've think to add something nice to have. If seeing is believing, how can blind people believe anything?

My dad's been looking for one and I think he's settling on the REI Flash 30. I'm curious what everyone else uses for day hikes. Do you usually stick with one, or are there several you rotate through?

Nearly killed my father on the way up. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/doh.gif" alt="" /> It was very nice though and everyone had a great time. Being unemployed makes it very easy to go out often. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" /> JYD #90 A man carries a knife everyday... even to church.
