Eric M,
I'll probably get some 1 inch webbing from DIY Gear Supply along with some fastex/ITW type side release buckles.
I'll probably go with 3 horizontal compression straps, two over the top, and a cordura or possibly webbing load shelf.
I have a HPG Tarahumara and compression kit, but I think with a little bit of bartack sewing I can come up with something lighter and easier to use.
My thought is to get a cuben fiber rolltop dry bag made for my gear and then use either the Tara or a small ULA pack as a daypack.
I think Kevin is close on the weights. I hope to be under 5 lbs with enough space for a 7-10 day hunt.
Just buy the Hill People Gear compression kit. By the time you order from multiple places and pay shipping you'll be out more money plus you'll have to sew your own panel.
