> 24 hourI never knew how much I needed this backpack until it arrived. It carries like a dream, is so absolutely comfortable, the color is so pretty, I got the gray and teal one and it doesnt show dirt at all. I carried this hiking 8 miles the first day I carried it then also took it with me to Disney World and it works perfect for both types of traveling around. I cant recommend it more honestly, I cant carry purses because my shoulder is messed up so I always carried a backpack purse instead and if youre more into backpacks than purses I really suggest this if you need something bigger than a mini backpack, its awesome.

> 24 hourI am a fan of Ospreys products and their excellent warranty and satisfaction guarantee. In fact, their treatment of their customers is one of the reasons for why I switched away from Gregory. Raven 10 is the pack I had purchased for my wife for when we go bike riding. She always preferred biking with her Camelbak one because of the smaller size, but after she used this Osprey pack, she actually switched to it! PROS - Osprey satisfaction guarantee and customer service - 2.5L hydration reservoir included - Mesh back to help keep you stay a bit more dry and ventilated - Magnet on the chest strap to help keep the hydration mouth piece within reach and secure - Dual zipper pockets - Stabilizing waist bands - Hydration sleeve to route the hose through - Thoughtfully-included Bike helmet attachment mechanism - Stretch mesh for stashing bulkier items like a jacket - Rear blinker light attachment towards the center bottom - Removable tool belt The slightly larger Raven or Raptor 14 also comes with a side-compression strap to hold larger gear, and a front-zipper stash pocket with key holder. CONS - A bit pricey compared to Camelbak packs, but none really come with the feature set offered by this pack This pack, once again, underscores why I have switched to Osprey (despite their higher price) for their quality, customer service, and product design. I highly recommend it. If you found this review helpful, please click the Yes/Helpful button to encourage me to write more. Thank you!

> 24 hourVery nice compact pack with hydration and nice compartments. Compressible, since no rigid frame as AirSpeed so can put in suitcase.

> 24 hourAmazing pack. I picked this up for dual purpose. First, I plan on biking next year again so I can speak on that aspect...yet. Second, I wanted a small day pack and my hydration only pack was just a little too small. A few things I noticed immediately: • My BD zpoles fit in the interior slots • I can attach my climbing helmet to the outside fairly easily, making this an excellent scram pack already. • The bottom has organization so when not biking you can organize important gear or essential 10s for day hike. • Can fit my layers in the bigger slot. I never knew I needed a bag more until I bought this. Go for it! Cant go wrong with a bag that actually has dual purpose.

> 24 hourThis is a nice hydration pack that is built for womens frames. It did feel designed a bit better from my body than some of the unisex packs that I have. The pack itself is pretty much what youd expect for a hydration pack with some nice details. There is a dedicated hydration compartment with a 2.5L reservoir. The reservoir is upright and is secured inside along the back of the pack. I found it pretty simple to open and fill. The pack has a belt that goes around the hips with small zippered compartments for money and/or earbuds. Another neat feature was a Lidlock helmet attachment for securing your helmet to the pack. It also has a removable tool roll in the bottom compartment. Another feature I liked is that is has a mesh fabric that lines the back of the pack to aid with breathability and air flow. Finally, the water spout/tube has a magnet can fit right across the chest for easy access. Overall, this is an excellent compact hydration pack that is designed especially for women. Highly recommended!
