Looking for a pack for day trips at my resort. Just want to carry water, beer, food, extra goggle, gloves, etc. on pow days. Not going to use it for the backcountry. Just wonder which size would be better.

I also don't want it to be bulky, but I'm not sure how small an 11L pack feels.

Thanks.
 
I have both and I'll recommend you the 16l baker. It's not bulky at all. It's pretty much the same as the 11l but with an extra pocket. If go 16 for sure. Maybe even size up to a 18 or 20 if you want cause I would personally enjoy a little extra room from time to time. But you should be good with 16 baker
 
Yeah, I ski with the heli pro dlx which is 20L for resort days and it doesn't both me. It fills up pretty quickly too so I'd go for the 16L
 
Just go for 16, you don't want to have to play Jenga every time you have to pack/unpack your bag.
