I am planning to go on a one hundred mile hike on the Appalachian trail in June (2019) with my friends Frankie and Marian (and a few other folks), and they have started a video log of their learning experience as they ramp up for the trip.

A few days ago, they posted an unboxing video for a TETON Sports Hiker 3700 Ultralight Internal Frame Backpack. Frankie and I have been talking about this trip for half a year, now, and gathering together the right pieces of gear has been (for us) good chunk of the fun of planning the trip.

Frankie and Marian go through the backpack's key features, including its adjustability, storage, padding, and more.
