Scott, great article, and I also appreciate all the effort that went into it. FWIW I'd love to see a loadhauler review, though, maybe comparing a NICE, the GG Stratus Flatbed, and other offerings. I suspect that there are other hunters beside myself who want to take a meat-capable pack into the backcountry but prefer to throw a lighter, low profile lumbar pack on top to use for most of the actual hunting.
