Backpacking is a favorite.
Roll-top style, I like the entrance .. And especially on rocks in a backpack zipper for easy ejection device is a very good idea. Climbing Backpacking is one of the best fun for me.

KOA 35
Sweet pack. Plenty of cool different arrangements / features, and a pretty sleek design. Only thing i didn't like was the top of the bag; not a traditional way of clipping it closes-instead it clips down to the sides, and if the back isn't filled to the brim, it looks a little pinched at the top. Nothing physically wrong with this, just takes away from the rest of the aesthetics of the bag.
