The best trails aren't on OnX......they're the ones you stumble across whilst following the ones on OnX. Or, no trail at all. That's the truth.......

What are these 'trails' you speak of? Do you mean, like, footpaths? People really leave the asphalt?

Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.
Ain’t easy havin pals.

Congrats Chris! Putting that new Kuiu to work! How did it handle the loads? No complaints with the new pack, was very pleased with it. Never had any type of discomfort, we did two 2.8 mile trips from kill site to camp (4 of us), and two 5.6 mile trips from camp to truck. Never had it over 70 lbs or so since there were 4 of us. The return trips were very nice, I’ve hiked around wearing heavier jackets than the empty Kuiu packs. I definitely have some equipment pros and cons that will be in my write up later this week, but the pack is a piece that is solidly in my starting lineup.
