or should I get a smaller daypack?

Yes, it is just perfect. Go ahead!
>>
>>1086147
Unless you're planning a late fall or winter trip it might be a bit overkill, but nothing actually wrong with it.

I prefer Osprey out of the "budget" pack brands but the Keltys are fine.

sarcasm, r-right?

I'm going in two weeks. Personally I thought it would be pants on head retarded to wear this pack. Overkill to say the least. Money was the issue here-I would just wear this pack unless it's just kinda ridiculous-which I suspect it is. Probably worth it to spend the money and buy a backpack style day pack (I was looking at Osprey)

How does it fit on you?
>>
>>1086495
it fits alright, I guess? It's feels bulky and constrictive though. I can barely bend forward without feeling the rigid frame hindering me and barely tilt my head back without hitting the top of the bag. It's capacity is 78 liters and for a day hike up mt elbert I'm thinking ~20 liters will do the job. I'd rather not spend the cash to get a daypack but wearing this pack just seems ludicrous.

I think you already have your answer.
>>

>dayhike
Shoulda said that in the OP. When you just pop off with "climb the tallest peak in the Rocky Mountains" we assumed you meant the entire, multi-day trip, not just the summit jaunt.
>>
>>1086564
I wasn't even aware there was a multi-day trip alternative. So, it would be retarded to sport the coyote 80 for just the summit jaunt, correct?
>>
>>1086574
Not if it's all you got and can afford. Otherwise, yes.
