I am an Eagle Creek person, period! One day a week is dedicated to urban adventure in San Diego. I ride the Coaster to the downtown area, hop on a trolley to Mexico, take a ferry to Coronado, a bus to Balboa Park...etc...I explore..... I am literally on my feet all day, hours at a time. I experimented with many packs before choosing the "Boundary." The weight rests on my hips, and my shoulders do not ache, either that day or the days after. My back is ventilated all day resulting in my comfort. I own 3 Boundaries, and fill them with cubes of various sizes.
Looped through the belt of my pack is an Eagle Creek wallet. I keep a credit card, cash, and train tickets in front, for ease and accessibility. This system of "wallet in the front," at waist level, allows me to keep the pack on all day.
I am a female baby boomer in my late fifties. With this system, I don't come home crippled after each trip. It is in fact, this system, that allows me to be as active as I am on a continuing basis.
During the rest of the week, I load my laptop and camera equipment, plus padded cubes with MP3 and tape recorder, into my Switchback 22. I wheel it discretely, into restaurants in North San Diego County, and do my work from this system, drinking tea, gazing at the ocean, watching pelicans soaring overhead, having all of my equipment at my fingertips.
If I need to photograph something, I load my camera gear into my Eagle Creek Camera bag, and head outdoors.
Everything is light...and looks good!
I lift all, easily, into my car. We boomers at middle age, love and appreciate your products.
I carry something of Eagle Creek with me at all times. Even my purse is organized with cubes. And for serious adventure, well, I have the women's Explorer.
I value your products, have seriously tested them on myself, and I am touched by your integrity to your customers.
Lastly, I grew up in New York, (the city), and am part of a manufactoring/designing family. I have had access to a wealth of products since childhood, a universe of products. I have chosen Eagle Creek for myself, and this is the best endorsement that I can offer you. Thank you for positively affecting my life..

I love this bag...and this is why:
- The back suspension is really comfortable and I can wear that bag for a long time without feeling like my shoulders are going to fall off.
- It's not bulky at all, doesn't get in the way, yet it has alot of space so usualy I only need to carry one bag.
- Love the little hidden pocket in the back. I used to hate the fact that in backpacks I had to put all my important things (wallet, papers) right in the front of the back where anyone can have access to it. But with this pocket,... great piece of mind.
All in all, don't know how I lived without it. I take it with me everywhere.
