[pct-l] Pct-l Digest, Vol 17, Issue 35

[Erik The Black]

Hi Crystal, 

The most popular pack among PCT thru hikers seems to be the ULA Catalyst. It
weighs 47 ounces and holds 4,700 cubic inches...

This is the upper limit of what I would consider carrying on a thru hike. If
you need more space than the Catalyst provides, you're carrying too much
gear.

I am planing a thru hike of the pct in 2010 and I was wondering if anyone
could tell me what size backpack I should get. I am not an ultralight hiker
, I was looking at the bora 80, what do you guys think?
