Could this work as a day pack that rolls up or otherwise stuffs into a pack while on an extended backpacking trip?

Yes. Wasn't sure but just checked. Material is sturdy but would be easy to roll up or tuck away (water bladder empty of course).

you could roll it up. Only issue I see is that it has a bit of back support built into it. Not much, but enough to keep it from "stuffing" nicely. It does have rings and straps on it that are built to attach it externally to other osprey packs to increase overall storage capacity. So even if its not built for the pack you have, external storage would probably still be an option.

Not readily no, but it is possible. It is however made to attach to the outside of full sized Osprey packs, so perhaps your pack will work as well.

The answer to this is... it depends... It will work fine as a carry DEPENDING on how much you pack in to it. It you stuff it as full as it will stretch, it might be a bit too large. But if you're packing for a two day trip or something like that, I would think you'd be fine...

it probably could be rolled up but it would be bulky. I agree with jills comment you can't walk on it easily and you wont stay dry, it is like a super air mattress not sturdy as the picture tries to make you think

I guess it depends on how much stuff you want to take with you on the plain. It will work fine as a bag pack, but not big enough as an carry on.

It would work excellent. There is a stabilizer strap for holding the bag tight that most people tuck into the opposite strap slot. With this strap snapped into the single strap the pack is very stable. I use my pack for every hike I have been on, it is my Man Purse.

It won't roll up; it has a flexible wire frame. Folded up, it's the size of the panel with the door. It's very lightweight, so you might be able to just hang it off the back of your pack.

If you use a duffle bag for this, you can pack other things along with it but it's awkward shaped when rolled up. I recommend using the extra large duffle bags from REI or Eddie Bauer. I use Intex Kidz Travel Bed for our travel needs.

Yes. but its not one of those really elaborate types of frames. Its enough to help it keep its shape though. Its more so considered a day pack than a full blown hiking backpack, Its quite large inside though. Holds a ton of stuff. More than I'd ever really need to carry on a day hike.

No, not as your only travel bag. I use mine for hiking, 1-2 days of supplies. But your trip will be much longer so so I think this backpack would be too small for your needs.

It would provide sufficient padding, I think, but it is a bit cumbersome. If you are traveling in a vehicle where you have plenty of space, it probably would not be a problem. But if you are backpacking into your campsite, it would be too big to roll up and pack with you.

Personally, I wouldn't recommend it. The Osprey has an airscape design for the back which gives the pack a kinda seemeless fit with the spine, bending, or folding it might damage it.

No, this would not easily fit in a back pack. It is too large and would bend and crease.

It is a big day pack. Lunch, rope, socks, gorp, jacket and lots of stuff like that. I don't think it would hold any sleeping bag etc. but stoves and water and whatever you need to go out for the day is no problem. It is a great pack.

Not really. There are a couple of zippered pockets, but it would not fit easily and would make it fold up very bulky.

Probably not big enough to pack enough clothing or gear for overnight. It is just right for bike gear, a bottle of water and a little snacking food or a sandwich or two.

Depends how tight you can pack it-think large bath towel folded vertically then rolled up

I would think so...it has straps to carry like a back pack. It is big when folded flat. It didn't seem heavy when carrying but I haven't carried mine a long distance.
