I think you made the right choice though, I have both types and I much prefer the one without wheels as I ‘wear’ it keeping my hands free, I never wear the one with wheels. Weird human nature huh!

Happy travels Marlene!

In the end I opted for purchasing one Cabin Max BackPack without wheels and one Karabar Cabin Approved Back Pack as they both got good reviews and are advertised as the same dimensions but the Karabar Back Pack also has a side handle – I can see if either one is better.

Thanks for a great review – it really helped me make my decision.

Better education on soil erosion and not stripping the soil of stabilizing vegetation would be a good start.

Thanks for stopping by and for the news

Its a bit like a job I had years ago, to chop out and replace a dozen or so rotten bricks in a wall. Years later the client commented that I had made a poor job, as there were still rotten bricks in the wall. It was obvious to me that the remaining poor quality bricks in the wall will continue to erode over time creating newly rotten and spalling bricks; but he didn’t get it. I had been and therefore the wall should be perfect. Duh! You can’t argue with that kind of logic.

Thanks for stopping by Bryce, hope the page was helpful!
