Would this pack and travel well? I am thinking of taking camping, and more for visual effect at the camp than for heat.

I'd recommend you pack it in the original shipping container. I see no reason why that wouldn't work. FYI - this unit does provide good heat but be careful, i.e the top metal cover gets extremely hot.

I think I would only chance taking it if you keep the original packaging it gets shipped in with the styrofoam that comes around the center tubing. Otherwise I think you could risk breaking the glass tubing.

Yes its true, not sure if I would take it traveling unless you are going to pack it in a vehicle for road travel sure!

Supposedly it's 2350 cu inches. So if you're only packing a minimum and live in a warm climate you could probably make it work. I would consider it more of a day pack.

It depends. I love this pack, but primarily use it for long day hikes in the a white Mountains where weather can be very unpredictable so I tend to carry extra gear. This would not be suitable for overnights requiring a tent & sleeping bag, but if all you need is a tarp, go for it. It's a great pack

Yeah! A perfect 3day pack. I hiked the npt trail with it 2 summers ago, which consisted of 9 days with food, tent, sleeping bag and rain gear, and It was maxed for space, but still comfy all 9days.

It works for me. I've had it out for 2-week campouts. Of course packing a pack depends on where you're going, what time of year, how many people are with you, and any number of tradeoffs.

I would not pack it if I were solo. Would be pretty easy for a few people. It would probably pack down enough into a smaller tent bag if you made a separate bag for the poles. That would also be a good way to split the load. It would sleep 4 people nicely and 5 snugly.

It would if you are using a compact sleeping bag. i hav this bag and i hav a decently small sleeping bang and it takes up about 1/3 of the inside of the pack. and there is straps on the bottom front of the pack to strap a tent or a sleeping pad on it. Hope this helps.

likely yes. I used it with a large day pack with no problem even in a tropical rainforest. It was excellent.

If you pack the poles seperately, the tent itself can get pretty compact and can be stuffed into any given pack (but it doesn't get any lighter...LOL).

It's a little large to pack, unless your intention is moving. I guess it would work.

I never had the opportunity to carry the bag in that much heat. It is well insulated and I think with extra cold packs it may be just fine. The bag was a lot larger than I thought it would be so I do not use it for work everyday. More of a cooler for special occasions.

Its lightweight and wouldn't be difficult to pack. It has a plug, if they let you plug it in, I suppose you could.

We pack several together in a case...by itself I think it would travel well. It is sturdy and very light.

Sure, I would think so. I can barely see it at night unless I have a campfire. Of couse there is mesh screening. I can just fit my cott & my back pack & 44 1/10 scale R/C Jeep ... and well survival equipment with me. Keep masking tape incase of splitting poles. It seems to be fine.

I've used it as a front pack for backpacking and found it to breath well and have no heat related complaints. Its very well made.

Hiking from the car to the site is not bad at all, but I recommend that you don't carry this bag while doing extreme backpacking. It's definitely a good bag that will keep you super warm. I hope I answered your question.
