I purchased an Atlas Athlete pack almost 5 years ago. The price initially made me wince, but after 5 years of constant use, I don't know why I hesitated. The Athlete pack makes it easy to carry all of the camera gear I need and it's held enough camping gear for me to stay out for a night or two. Like you, I've hauled that bag across mountains, deserts, prairie, marshes, and swamps; through rain, snowstorms, and dust storms. It's taken a lot of abuse but keeps on going. I've tried many other bags, but this is the only one that's survived what I put myself and my gear through. I'm glad you created this video about this amazing bag

Right on!

Looks like a great pack. I've invested quite a lot into the Peak Design ecosystem, otherwise this is something I'd heavily consider. For my waaaay off the grid hiking and photography adventures, though, I use a Vertx pack that can fit my camera gear and a couple of my firearms. I love to see these gear reviews, both for the OBW and photography. Thanks!

Right on! I totally understand being locked into an ecosystem. Appreciate the kind words!

That’s pretty sweet. I have too much stuff spread over too many places.

lolol likewise, my friend!

I’m more of a side access landscape photographer who loves hiking, this would hv been the perfect backpack if it had that side access. Do you other similar bag recommendations or tips on how to use this bag if I stop a lot to take photos while hiking?

That makes perfect sense. I've never like side access because I'm always taking my camera out and putting it back in and that became a pain. I use the peak design clip and have my camera attached to my chest strap for easy access and while I hike I keep it locked in place. I quite literally climbed a mountain with the camera strapped to my check in the clip and rappelled down from 500' with no issue. That's my personal work around. Let me know if you have any other questions. I'm more accessible on Instagram. Thanks!

I’m already at the point that I have way too many camera bags and too much gear to fit in any single one of them… it’s a vicious cycle. None of them are “just right”, and I really need to trim down to a single backpack, messenger bag, and a carry-on pelican… oh, and my ocf/light-stand bag (that one is pretty much sorted though).
