I'm hoping to make it out to idaho elk/mule deer hunting and need a new pack.
watching lots of randy newberg videos on youtube it's all mystery ranch, they look durable and I like the idea of being able to carry out the first 1/4 on the first trip back to the truck/camp vs hiking back with a daypack THEN hiking back with a frame pack. In a recent video he was using the cabinet but when asked he said he still prefers the metcalf.
i would check out his forums or rokslide for more MR info and used deals.
bellydeep: what pack would you suggest? I was going to go MR but everyone has the medium frameand I imagine I'm going to measure out for a small frame so don't want to drop $300-400 then have something that doesn't fit quite right
