all packed ...


... and this is what it looks like in one place.

the travel pack is an eagle creek transport II. the front pocket zips off to become a daypack (it also acts as a soft briefcase.  before 9/11, the daypack was the largest size bag international rules allowed under the seat in front of you, the remaining bag was the largest you were allowed to put in an overhead bin.  i believe those specifications have changed, but i don't know what the new ones are now.

this bag was a rarity and misfit when it was new -- i've never seen another one in the wild.  i bet you could get one for a song on ebay if you were willing to wait for it -- it'd be a super-great deal (and guaranteed for life).  the bag you're looking at here has probably traveled on the order of 500k miles, including camel back in rajastan, elephant in assam, a bicycle trip across the US and a roll-over accident in spain.  insanely tough.
