Good Features
 Carries load comfortably. Excellent capacity. I carry full rack (doubles on most sizes), 10 draws, 4-5 24" to 48" slings, shoes, harness, helmet, chalkbag, snacks, rain jacket, 2x Nalgene bottles or 1 camelback bladder (has interior pocket with separate access for bladder), and guidebook with ease. Can also fit 60m 10.1mm rope if needed (I usually split rope/rack with partner). Split panel design means easy access to everything. Rugged--can be abused. Convenient pockets and pouches. Metal clips on ice tool keeper cords function moderately well as bottle openers.
Bad Features
 Half moon zipper on interior mesh pocket allows stuff to fall out. Not a huge issue as there is another mesh pocket with horizontal zipper underneath it.
Recommended Alternatives
 ArcTeryx Miura packs are similar, but slightly smaller. I tested both out at the shop and decided on the Splitter. Very content with it.

From Travel Country:
The Mountain Hardwear Splitter Backpack is a cragger’s dream come true! The Splitter is a panel loading crag pack that is durable enough to lay down flat in the dirt, allowing users to organize climbing equipment. A pull out tarp keeps your gear clean while you're going through it. Supportive, the Splitter features a HDPE framesheet with allow shaping road to support the weight of what you're hauling. A compression molded backpanel balances comfort, ventilation and snow-shedding, while dual density shoulder straps and a single density hipbelt distribute the load evenly for maximum comfort. The bottom of the Splitter is padded to resist wear and tear when you're hauling heavy loads. Inside this Mountain Hardwear pack, compartments and interior compression panels are designed to keep clothing, ropes and hardwear stabilized and orderly. Internal zip pockets hold shoes, clothing or a chalk bag, while an internal compression panel holds heavy rope and rack securely against backpanel for excellent carry. When you're heading to the mountain, haul your gear in the pack that has every feature you need and more, the Mountain Hardwear Splitter Backpack.
