Spencer's Take- 

Whatever the activity this bag can handle it. Running a single day Pemi? Check. Fast Packing a Hut Traverse? Check. Heading up to Whitehorse or Cathedral for a day of cragging? Check. The shoulder straps spread the weight across the shoulders and hugs close to the body to prevent bouncing. Enough pockets upfront to keep snacks and phones for easy access. A pack that can answer all the questions.
