Outdoorsmans Optis Hunter is about as adjustable as it gets. Added a Kuiu 3K bag for light trips. Can't complain.

im also looking for a larger day pack. Used the Just 1 last year and it was ok but heavy. Been looking at the MR Cabinet but the Seek unaweep 4800 has peeked my interest.

Would it be capable of hauling and elk quarter or even a boned out mule deer?

Thanks in advance for any information that would help with my decision.

I have carried more elk in a Unaweep 4800 than any of the others we offer. I've also done a full boned out deer 7.5 miles off trail , off route, sometimes uphill, sometimes ducking under oak brush and going down one cliff band (yes that sucked) . So the short answer is yes it will do fine. Let us know if we can help.

Thanks
Kevin

Get the Unaweep and quit the mental gymnastics.

Not sure if this helps, but I went with the Slumber Jack Rail Hauler 2500 and I m very pleased with it. I shopped around a lot for a good deal. I only paid $119 for it.

I day hunt almost exclusively and the solid frame lets me haul a full deer out in one trip. Its a very compact frame not like your standard frame pack at all. It also came with a nice 2500 cu in roll top bag that I can stow my stuff in and it stays out of the way. Its anodized aluminum is quite light and sturdy.

Plenty of attachment point as well. for PALS/Molle

Cheers
