I will use my backpack in Norway on ~week trips. This means I’ll carry much, walk in mountains, use it on skis and so on. It should also be highly water resistant/waterproof.

I am considering the Arc’teryx Arrakis 65. Will it fit my needs? I have tried it on, and it seem to fit fine, but then again I wont really know until I’ve carried it for some hours… Does anyone have experience with the Arrakis 65?

I also have a CamelBak ThermoBak® 3L which i got from my year in the army. Will I be able to use this with the Arrakis 65?

What does fluther think; the Arrakis 65 or something else?
