Either way, I'm not a fan of Backcountry after they sued the crap out of anyone and everyone for using the extremely generic term "backcountry". Bunch of shady dicks. https://gearjunkie.com/news/backc...t-lawsuits
If the item you want is available, Scheels.com/ should price match via email. They're employee owned, have a great return policy, and aren't dicks.
Looks like they have at least some of the same packs. https://www.scheels.com/p/osprey-...00811.html
If you aren't a fan of Scheels for whatever reason, Enwild (who used to be called Backcountry Edge until the lawsuits started) will also price match.

Several of the companies involved were small mom-and-pop stores, some of which were using the word "Backcountry" before Backcountry.com even existed. These guys blow.

Wow SD is getting shady these days. Link didn't work just go to Osprey's website and check.
Should be here Friday and hoping to go hike somewhere Sunday or Monday to test it out.
I'd say I've hiked over 200 miles with this bag and it is a game-changer for my hikes with my dog (and wife)!
Pros
- Carries a lot of water, but don't notice it (other than slight weight on your back)
- Carries a lot of "other stuff" like wallet, car keys, dog's water bottle, some snacks, a light coat, etc.
- extremely compact and doesn't "lean on your back" to the point that youre sweating
- the hydropacks are easy to fill and use to drink
ConsYou can bring 40L-50L bag, depending on the dimensions, as a carry-on (overhead bin).
