The BUG was designed specifically for multipitch, long routes that are done in a single day. Its rounded rectangular shape maximizes volume and minimizes interference while in use. It also makes a great bouldering pack.
The volume of the BUG is ideal for carrying gear on the approach and when climbing (hydration system, guidebook/topo, clothing, shoes, etc). Everything has been designed for maximum comfort while climbing with the BUG on the back: minimal bulk, shoulder straps allowing freedom of arm movement, comfortable and ventilated back panel, foldaway waistbelt, high positioning allows access to back of harness(for chalkbag, gear) and lateral compression straps.
