I've used the Ducksback, the Pro Route and (currently) the cheap
Campmor and I must say that, for warmer temps, the Campmore is more
bearable than the other, heavier ones. It does blow around a bit more
because of its light weight, and the thigh loops are annoying
alternatives to waist straps, but it works. (We do get the occasional
shower here in ABQ; the Campmor kept me dry from neck to knees once in
a half hour ride against a howling 3/4 headwind blowing a SW downpour
that filled our access road 2' deep in an hour.

A billion stars go spinning through the night
Blazing high above your head;
But in you is the Presence that will be
When all the stars are dead.
