![]() ![]() What are your thoughts on using the Manta 34 with the pack cinched down (because most of the time it wont be "full") vs going with the 24 which wont have a ton of extra room? For those of you that have them is there a noticeable difference in bulk between them? This will be mainly a day pack as I have other larger packs if I do anything where I would need a sleeping bag, tent or other bulky gear past a stove and other cooking equipment. With the larger pack I may could put it in the pack easier. I took off my coat after a short while and just did my normal stow where I wrap it over the top of my pack and use the top cinch straps to hold it there. Last week I was using my escapist 22 and it did okay but my back was still pretty wet and sweaty hiking in 40 degrees F with just a long sleeve shirt. I was really thinking about the 24L size but kind of wonder if I should go up to the 34 since I normally carry some extra gear or offload some stuff from my wifes pack into mine. We currently live in Arizona so I really like the small frame and breathability on your back of the Mira so that led me to the Manta series for men. I have two other Osprey packs (Escapist 22 and a Ozone 46) that really dont work out that well for hiking here. Ive been looking into the Osprey Manta day pack after getting the Mira 22 for my wife.
