I really like the pack and trained with over 50lbs at times but have really never loaded it down for that long grind. The load lifters work great and the belt is really solid.I do have the frame extensions that help the load lifters do their job. It is a very, very versatile frame/load hauler that is simple once you learn it but a little intimidating at first. I am going to try and find a way to haul decoys with it. I hunt public for ducks also. Here is a pic on a fishing trip to the coast. The thing is so light I can wear it anywhere, even on a jetty. You are gonna like it.
