[QUOTE="partisan1911, post: 431047, member: 21115"] Most of my equipment is not even meant for hunting ie. stoves, tents, clothing. For shelter I bring a two man three season tent that weighs 3lbs. I only use it to sleep in. When I go by myself I can drag the top of my pack in and zip around it. Otherwise the pack stays outside. I have used the eberlestock dragonfly for a couple of hunts and it worked well. The smaller pack forced me to take a critical look at all the junk I bring. Most of my hunts I use the Cabela's guide pack because it can hold alot of animal. I am not a big fan of cabelas either but my packs take alot of abuse as I climb through alders etc. and flop my butt down with all that weight it is holding. The pack itself is torn up pretty good but gets the job done. The frame is bent in a few spots and beat up pretty good but I can make them last about five years before I have to buy a new one for around $100 or so. One more quick note. "nothing is waterproof". I don't care what the ads or warranty say. [/QUOTE]
