[pct-l] Go Lite Continuum Pack

[Trekker4 at aol.com (Trekker4@aol.com)]

 I have a Golite catalog, not handy, but recall that the Continuum is not one 
of the Golite packs suitable for multi-day hikes. It's probably a day hike, 
running, hydration, or climbing pack; he should be able to figure that out with 
a careful study of the catalog. 
    I know the Golite Trek is the one that seemed most suitable to me; it 
weighs 2 lbs; and I even saw one in the Whole Earth Provision store in Dallas 
week before last, on sale. It's not suitable for loads over 30 lbs, which 
probably means it's going to start hanging off your shoulders at 25 lbs. In the 
desert, like Big Bend where I live and hike, most hikers are going to be at 30 lbs 
with a full load of water for those 20-30 mile waterless sections, one place 
43 miles as I recall.
