    Looking for a new pack

    With all the trouble my knee has been giving me I am now moving to lighten up all my gear as much as possible, I have an old Fairydown 75ltr pack that is bombproof but is also pretty heavy.
    Has anyone tried or use the Osprey packs? They seem pretty lightweight, and from what I can tell by playing with them in the shop I quite like their harness, allthough under load it could be an entirely different kettle of fish...
    Im looking at going to around 70 liters as it seems a good compromise between multiday trips and overnighters with a bit of room for meat and not lugging around "too much pack". The Osprey Aether70 seems to tick most of the boxes for me but interested to here from anyone that has used one, especially how comfortable they are under load, and how well they transfer load away from the shoulders and onto the hip belt. Thanks for any advice.
