Why the P-2 and not the P-1???  Its obvious that you're an ultralight 
hiker already.  The P-1 is the same size as the P-2, I believe.  It 
also now has options, as does the P-2, to support a top lid pocket.

Since you have a light load, and the P-2 weighs 20oz more, I'm 
confused by your pack choice.
