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...

Yes. It's a great pack but it's HUGE. I fell it's too big for everyday activities. Good for travel but some airlines will have check it in as it doesn't always overhead.

I carried it up a steep hill when we used it and it was light enough to carry in the bag it came in that way. Not sure how well it'd be in a backpack but you could probably do it though it might be awkward. I was surprised at how roomy it was with 2 people yet packed down rather small. It has several internal pockets inside too which was really nice since we camped out in the pouring rain and I was worried about things getting wet. With that said, we were very dry during the night :)

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

I don't think so...maybe some components strapped to molle webbing on outer shell but you wouldn't be able to carry much else...consider this a hunting day pack, range bag, 1-2 day ultra lite camp bag...not a ton of storage space

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.

It's not what I would use for a 5-day trip, although if you're going somewhere warm it might work. This pack has plenty of external attachment points, but its internal volume is similar to a typical Jansport daypack like college kids carry. Moreover, it's a top-loading pack which is the worst kind for packing clothes. Not the best pack for doubling as a carry-on unless you want to be wrinkly for five days.

I have stashed 'backpacking' sleeping bag in the pack with minimal clothes. Have not tried packing a tent into it yet, but imagine you could strap one to it externally. Or if you had a really compact tent (I don't), that may work.

No. I would say it is too large for that unless you have a very big suitcase. It is 18 inches wide and 32 inches long. Since you've asked, I just now tried rolling it up. There are 80 pockets -- 40 on each side. When I rolled it, I would say the things on one side would be okay, and maybe some on the other side, but the objects in the last row or two on the outer side would be falling out. The pockets are nice and large, but they don't zip closed. Hope this helps you!

Yes. I don't think it would roll up well with all pockets filled with sockets.

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.

it would just depend on what type of trip and how long. if pack is to be used for a day trip, then yes, it should be fine. if multiple days, were more gear is essential (wet/cold, sleep system, food, water), it may not be enough for two people. only exception may be if both persons are true minimalists ...hope this helps

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.

It's pretty small, good for a day pack. You'd be pushing it to pack enough in it for an overnight trip.

I will fit over one of the smaller day packs easily. We have not tried it over a full sized pack.

Yes. as the straps are pretty long and not super sturdy. You might do better to have the pack infront so you can manage the weight if something goes wrong wit hthe straps.
