[QUOTE="Tortuga, post: 1290792, member: 88975"] Ditto on Mystery Ranch. I run three of them (30ltr, 55ltr, and 80ltr) and everyone I work with either has MR or wishes they had one. I've deployed with all three at one time or another. Another light weight pack I've had the pleasure to spend a winter with was the Wild Things Andinista pack. Not as hardy as the MR's, but light and wore well on the back. Cost-wise, if you can find a surplus Marine ILBE pack, they are great for hunting use. They were designed by Arcteryx and are sturdy as hell. If you take off some of the webbing, MOLLE and replace the huge zipper pulls with lighter fare, you can safe a LOT of weight. The chief complaint the Marines had with it was how poorly it interfaced with body armor, it wears great for those of us not wearing SAPI plates. [/QUOTE]
