You won't regret it one bit. I love mine and have carried everything from a mtn goat to several elk out with it and I don have any complaints period. I still have an old Kifaru long hauler but my KUIU goes hunting with me now.

I have the Icon. The first one was the original 3000 and now I have the '12 model 7200, great packs.

The icon is a great pack. I have the 7200 and will get the 1850 soon.

Yeah I would like to try the 1850 for archery as well. It has a bigger load shelf and should compress even smaller then the 7200 now. But super light weight and quiet as well, handles loaded up even better IMO.

What's the advantage with the new ULTRA 6000 pack over the ICON 7200 or ICON 5200? They are all priced about the same.

The Ultra is still $50 and $40 less than the 7200 and 5200 even on clearance...the ICON was substantially more prior to this weeks clearance.


Wanted: Vintage Remington or Winchester hats, patches, shirts. PM me if you have something.

I just placed an order for the ultra 6000. I have been going back and forth on packs for about 4 months and at that price point I figured it was worth a try.

Can't wait to give it a workout.

Figure it'll either be the last pack I buy, or the last KUIU pack I buy.

I like it, but Tanner was making fun of me. Even though he's on his 3rd 7RM and it looks like it came from Yo Gabba Gabba...

But in all seriousness, I'm going to run my Dana another year and see WTF. Was tossing around a Stone Glacier & Outdoorsman's before I pulled the trigger on the Kuiu. Figure in for a dime, in for a dollar. Another $200 isn't much in the grand scheme and might as well get full value than beat the crap out of it for a year and sell it for 1/2. Got free shipping on the purchase, so it ain't no thang.

I've been known to let the fat brown Santa bring me stuff to play with and ship it back. I do have more class than to wear a suit to a wedding and take it back the following Monday though. My buddies, not so much.....
