He is quite fussy when it comes to insuring a perfect fit, and I am grateful that he is. The load certainly did not feel like 70 lbs...it felt more like 45-50.


That's a nice svelte looking pack. What is the ventilation like on your back? Also, it seems like there is uncomfortably little room behind your head. Is there "cup" or indentation of some sort that allows for more clearance than is otherwise shown in that side profile picture?

It's supposed to be hard. If it wasn't, everyone would do it. The hard...is what makes it great.
