Shows that perspective matters. As a parent keeping costs down is a big object. I think granddads are supposed to indulge the grand-kids if they can.

a “real” pack that looks like Grandpa’s is going to be a plus for sure! Good fit is important even if only carrying a little bit, IMO. You want him to enjoy the hikes. Yup, those are two concerns. The latter more than the former, which is why a water bottle sleeve is required. I'm kinda leaning toward an Osprey Jet 18L at the moment. That’s a sweet little pack. He’ll love it.
