Thanks for the feedback. Those from the far north, how much more CI are you looking for ? Would taller or wider work better ?
Thanks
Kevin - a 7,000 to 7,500 ci bag would be sweet. My vote would be for taller. I currently have the 6300 evo. Used it to pack out 90lbs when my daughter got a goat. For my body shape the wrap around hip belt is awesome. The three piece belts with a lumbar pad slip down my hips when the pack is heavy and I start sweating.
The roll top with no side zip for more weather protection is great, especially when you have to bush whack through snowy balsams:
