Stone Glacier Terminus

It was waiting for me when I arrived home from my trip to the Bob Marshall.  I can't wait to put it to the test during the general mule deer season.

Brushchimp has a kifaru timberline we will be comparing this pack side by side against.

It went pretty good.  Yes it was Hot and the hunting was tough.

I've been fortunate enough to put quite a few miles on the Solo in the last few weeks. With both camp and camp and critters. Pretty stinking nice set up IMO.

WOW!

I just got it all loaded up for 5 days.  I'm at 36 lbs with 5 days of food (not counting the Rbros 7mag).  I know it's not a lot of weight but this pack has passed the initial light load test.  I walked the hill next to the house and the pack is rock solid and feels like it is glued to you.  For a guy with a long torso and curvy back it distributes the weight well.

The real test will hopefully come later in the week when the pack will need to get the 100+ lb load off the mountain. :tup:

I know this thread is really old, but was there ever an update to this?  I'd love to know what you thought of the pack.
