I purchased this frame backpack for a 11 day trip to Europe. After packing, I discovered that I have packed more than enough clothes that would last me at least 13 to 17 day trip. The Teton Sports Fox 75+10L Internal Frame Backpack really proved to be a pack that displayed superb structural integrity in general and it really stayed well balanced on my back through some pretty long hikes. All the compartments of this internal frame backpack sure made all my possessions quite easy to organize. But the truth is that, a couple of the outside clips and straps might be a wee bit excessive, I suggest that you ensure that you tie up the slack before you go on to check it in at air port. When I was on the road, these straps did come in quite handy, I tied up my heavy jackets and the tripod for my camera quite securely (all those straps weren’t useless after all).
The Teton Sports Fox 75+10L Internal Frame Backpack is made of top quality materials which really came as a surprise to me because on seeing it for the fist time, I thought it was going to set me about 100 to 150 dollars back but it was a whole lot cheaper than what I thought. The sleeping bag compartment is quite easy to access, you do not have to worry about stuff getting wet when it rains thanks to the rain fly which comes attached to the backpack. One more thing, this pack is big; most times, I only end up using only 65 percent of its capacity.

Teton Sports Scout 3400 Internal Frame Backpack - Great Backpack at A Great Price
I got this frame backpack for a 4 day trip to the Rocky Mountains. We began our trip on a day when it rained cats and dogs. Thank goodness for the attached rain cover, all my stuff would have been sopping wet! However it would not be able to accommodate any additional stuff you might attach outside the pack. The Teton Sports Scout 3400 Internal Frame Backpack has a spacious compartment in the lower section where you can pack your sleeping bag. I was really quite eager to try out this feature – I really wanted to avoid going through the whole trouble of unpacking my entire bag each night. If your sleeping bag does not fit through the pack’s opening, then try getting a compact sleeping bag – because that is exactly what I did.
This internal frame backpack is set up in a way, so that it is used with a hydration bladder; however this bag does not come with one. I got one before I went on my trip and I was indeed quite happy with the way it worked. The pouch for the hydration bladder is inside the bag, the pouch can conveniently accommodate a 3 litre bladder – this way, you can easily have access to water when you go hiking. The Teton Sports Scout 3400 Internal Frame Backpack has two mesh pockets on each side and another one more pocket on the lower back side too. These pockets are quite useful for keeping stuff that you want to quickly get access to, I really needed to get quick access to my energy drink and energy bars. I totally recommend this bag for those who want a great bag for a good price.
