Go-Lite is a great company. They make really reliable stuff. I've used their lite and fast backpacks before. That Kiva I used was a six person. We never had more than three in it in the snow. It was plenty roomy on that Oregon Coast trip. If I ride Oregon Coast again, I would outfit the same way. By the way. Oregon has the best hiker-biker campgrounds I've ever seen. All have hot showers! Good job, Oregon!
