[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1855615, member: 54178"] Don, You want a[I] frameless[/I] 60 L pack?? How do you propose to transfer the pack weight to your padded hip belt without a frame? 60 L. is a decent sized pack, good for a 5 day trip. That could be upwards of 45 pounds - without a frame?? But wait, you mentioned 16 pounds. How can you do 16 lbs. of shoulder season gear for say, even a 3 night trip? Please list your gear, all of it, and the weight for each item. I'll be waiting with great interest B/C for me, with a light Osprey EXOS 58 (61 L.) pack, Western Mountaineering Megalite overstuffed 20 F. down bag, REI Insulated R3.7 air mattress (15 oz.) and Tarptent Moment DW solo tent (2 lbs. 2 oz.) and Trail Designs cone stove using ESBIT tablets plus my clothing, food, water and other necessaries I'm still at 28 pounds. And then there's my scoped, loaded rifle. Eric B. [/QUOTE]
