Carryology.com Features Osprey Kode 22 Packs – December 3, 2010

It’s hot. Hot enough to fry eggs on the road. The sand burns to walk across as a hot north wind fans a fun and peaky south east swell. But I’m not on the sand. I’m at home playing with a mountain pack. A brand new Osprey Kode 22. It must be summer in Oz…
When you grow up skiing in the Southern Hemisphere, you get used to travelling for snow. This year we’ll return to the relentless dumps of north island Japan. While we used to score endless turns inbounds, each season we’re having to walk a little further, as the growing crowds discover our stashes. Enter the Kode 22.
Outside Online.com Features Osprey Packs – December 4, 2010
While you maybe able to get away with work gloves, the same is not true for packs, whether you just want to take lunch and spare goggles or hit up backcountry laps, it’s an item that needs to be perfect to you and for the task. Which is why after a few years of dealing with less than perfect packs for me, I’ve returned to Osprey Packs,whose main focus is fit and options.

Outside Online – Featuring Aether 70
I’m graduating from a Masters program in May, and planning, possibly, my last great summer get-away before becoming a hard-working stiff in September. My itinerary from mid-May through August includes a hiking/camping cross-country road trip to Sedona, two weeks of camping and hiking in Alaska, volunteering as a fly-fishing instructor in Alaska, and traveling in Asia for three weeks. If you were putting together a recommended gear list (particularly lightweight waterproof jacket, backpack, tent, and sleeping bag) from scratch where would you start?
… I also like Osprey’s Aether 70 ($260), which is about the same size as the Baltoro, and is just a touch lighter. I’ve carried both in the past year and love them both.
