Loaded (stuffed, really; pretty haphazardly) with 28 pounds,
including bag, bivy, sil-tarp, food bag (3 days' worth), odds
and ends, and two half-gallons of water.
With minor adjustments, DANG comfy!
Some more minor adjustments: Ohmigod! I ruined it! What a
torture rack!
Some major adjustments, much fiddling: Mmmmmmm, getting (back)
there. Slow process.
Start Over: pack with some attention to major facet of frameless
packs: your load *is* your suspension.
Start Over: loosen all straps, readjust as if it mattered.
Result: Whoaaaaaaaa! Kewwwwwwl!
Retired to second string: Lowe Alpine Hyperpacker 90, 4.5
pounds, 5600ci.
New clean-up batter: MoonBow GearSkin/customized, 1.8 pounds,
2000-5000+ci.
Will be at Gathering (mostly on Sunday) for anyone who wants a
peek.
Sloetoe
who'll be ordering two more, for the SmallBoys.
