Customer Reviews Osprey Salida 12

I love this pack! I love the pockets on the hips for snacks, the key holder in an inside pocket so they don't get lost, the helmet holder, the outside stuff flap for a jacket or to hold a chin bar for my full face. Great bladder and so many spots to store stuff. The sunnies pocket! If it had a built in rain cover that would be epic but I haven't needed one yet.

This is a great backpack. But, be forewarned. Osprey has changed the hydration pack. Before you could easily disconnect the tube from the reservoir with a handy release clip. That made filling the reservoir easy as you could pull it out of the pack and bring it to the sink while leaving your tube in place. Now, the drinking tube is permanently attached to the reservoir. This means that to fill it with water or clean it, you have to totally remove the reservoir and the tube and completely disengage it from you pack. Great big pain.
