I've had one for, what, 10 yrs. now. When I bought it, I was not happy with the price. But now, after all these years, and after using lessor packs until they came apart, I can see why it's worth the money.
I haven't loaded my Spike Camp to 65-70 lbs. and tried it on rough trails, but I have done that with my Late Season. Worked alot better than I ever thought it would. Trying to haul heavy loads on bad trails, or no trails at all really showed me it was money well spent. E
