Reviews: Kelty Blanca Backpack - 2000cu in
Best Everything Pack This pack is so sweet. It has so many pockets. I use it for the gym, going to trade shows and day hikes. I love the sunglass pocket and the change pocket. Not to mention all the stash pockets on the outside. I carry so many different things in the Blanca it's crazy. The hideaway waist belt is key for traveling through airports as well. The best feature is the Source Reservoir. I've owned a Camelbak for years and I always thought the water tasted funny. That's because those reservoirs suck. I kept the same water in the Source for a week. It heated up and cooled down. I was in a pinch and needed water and it tasted great. Source rules. The Blanca rules. From what I can tell this is the best value going.
Blanca Packs for Everyone This has gotta be the nicest daypack I've seen in my entire life. The suspension system on it rocks! Never before have I hiked with a pack this comfortable. I'll agree with Geda fully, the Source Reservoir is key! Water tastes great, and doesn't get all heinous and rotten inside if you leave your water in it for a few days. So many pockets, it's like you have to actually look for things to put in the pockets, instead of looking for a place to keep your stuff. The built in sunglasses case is amazing, finally a case to put your 200 dollar sunglasses in without worrying about them getting FUBAR. By far the best pack for day hikes, cruising town, or pretending like you're homeless. Right on, Kelty!
