Will never go back to internal frames! By J Hop
This is my favorite piece of backpacking equipment that I own. I had used an internal frame for a while, but it never felt comfortable no matter how I packed the dang thing. After some research, I decided that I was going to try an "old school" external frame. Fortunately for me, there weren't many options so I went with the Jansport Carson 80.
Now your first thought may be like mine was "isn't Jansport the guys who make school backpacks?" Yes they are, but don't let that fool you. I like having plenty of extras with me, and considering we'll go backpacking during any weather conditions, it's nice to have space to stuff those extras. I've hiked this bag at a weight of 40lbs and did so with much greater ease and less fatigue than I have an internal at 20lbs. And did I mention that this thing is huge!
I've enjoyed it so much that my brother finally broke down and bought one himself. For the price of this bag, you just can't beat it. As for the comments about straps breaking; I've had mine out several times now and I have yet to have any problems with straps or buckles on this beast.
The only complaint I can have with this bag is deciding what to put in all that space!AWESOME BAG! By J. Aaron lindsey
Just returned from a camping trip with the Jansport Carson and I am very impressed. I hiked with 50 pounds of supplies, but this pack is so balanced I could hardly feel it. Hiked 9 miles to camp without an issue.Just what I was looking for By Ed
This pack easily handles the 55 pounds I carry with it. I am a Scout leader and I have to bring enough stuff to be sure I have things the boys, for one reason or another, have left behind. It was a little tough to get adjusted, but once I had it right it has been great with LOTS of room.
