No, I believe it's too small for that and the top seam of the bag has a stiff wire frame in it to help hold it open while packing it, so folding it up isn't much of an option either. A small drawstring backpack would better suit your need. :)

It's very small and light. I don't backpack but I think it packs smaller than a typical sleeping bag.

Yes its a perfect pack for a 2-3 or more day hike. I personally did a 4 night hike with this pack and it was awesome. Youtube has some good reviews of this pack that are convincing. The sleeping bag compartment won't hold your sleeping bag unless you plan on just using a thin bed sheet. Its a great starter pack that will last quite a while.

Yes, it's small enough to fit in a backpack. I bought two for my girlfriends kids, just not the warmest bags in the winter.

Yes it does. I got them for a trip to New Zealand but didn't use it very much. Guess it was more of a bother and we didn't do "hiking" as much as we just walked.

It fits in about the same size roll as a traditional summer bag. Maybe even a little smaller. I've used mine for long multi day/night hike trips with no issues.

We have a L for the 75L backpack and it is spacious. So I expect the Small would be sufficient (unless you carry large stuff to the outside of your pack).

Because of the internal frame, it will be unable to fold that small. You need a backpack without an internal frame or external frame. Good luck with that!

I think it should fit inside a hiking backpack or you could at least affix it to the outside. It does fold up nicely.

I would think so I have not traveled with it, but it is no bigger than the size of a normal back pack just designed to allow for more storage.

Yes. My son is 12, and small for his age. He has used this pack comfortably for several Boy Scout camping trips and hikes.

Probably not a good idea as the pack is not quite that sturdy. I use mine for light day trips and hiking. I sometimes take my iPad and that's about the max size I would take. Hope this helps.

The answer is a definite "YES". I would know because I wish should have bought a smaller one for my needs. On note though is that it may not have the padding you normally see in packs that are meant to hold laptops. Lots of pockets inside.

I think It may fit you very well.My hikes are for the day and of 5 to6 miles.I have adequate room for a book, first aid kit, lunch and a small soft cooler for two Coca Colas.

I just went hiking with it this past weekend. At the end of the hike, I was sweating, and felt a lot of sweat on my back. But its a very comfortable pack. However, it lacks space for TONS of camera gear for long trips. So, be warned that if you want this trip to go cross country, its not going to store much more than a camera and a lens in the padded area. In the main compartment, stuff will move around quite a bit. So, plan carefully.

Whether or not an item fits most often depends on how much you pack into it. My best guess would be no. This is a quite roomy pack and one would probably tend to overfill.
