In the spirit of the thread, here is a picture from last years sheep hunt with my CM11 in day mode with the bayonets removed. Everything I need for the day-spotter, tripod, raingear, meat bags, food, water, etc, etc..
The flexibility is one of my favorite things about my LBP.
5 day trip? No problem. Loosen the compression straps, put on the lid and hydration sleeve, add the bayonets and by-pass straps and you're good to go.
Evening scouting trip? No problem. Compress down, remove top lid, hydration sleeve, bayonets and by-pass straps, extend Q-bayos, add water bottle pouches and you're good to go.
