[pct-l] Light weight packs

[Dude Spellings <dude1@pdq.net>]

Hi ya'll : )  I am interested in learning more about ultralight.  I am
considering buying a new pack and wondered what recommendations ya'll
have concerning the following:

1.  What pack would you recommend?

2.  How small can I go?  I am considering the North Face Exocet, which
is 2000ci.   It only wieghs 1lb, 15oz.  I am planning on taking my gear
to the store with me to see if it fits, but I wantde some feedback frim
people who have experience in ultralight.

3.  Has anyone ever used the TNF Exocet?  If so, what is your opinion of
the pack?

thanks a lot,
Dude in TX
