Over twice the size of your DT3.

And 1k bigger then the DT1

Amazing how small it packs up. Which frame did you go with?

I stuck with the Bikini frame from last year.  I won my fantasy football so decided I "needed" a new bag.  The EMR2 looks to be the ticket.  Now FTF and I are in the process of trimming our gear down...Trimmed 10 ounces just tonight messing around!

There yuh go! I've added 5 lbs in camera gear between lens, mics and rigs this year so I gave up on the light weight idea haha

Looks nice Trav. I can't wait to see it in person. Is that the standard lid?

Makes sense. Ive yet to encounter that problem. Still too scared to hit the true backcountry yet.
Dont even got a solid working GPS

Pick a trail to a lake and go for it. You don't need a GPS. There's a 1st time for everything.

Scott and I got a little skunked this weekend on our trip.  Had an idea for a totally off trail hike to a tough to get to area...turns out it was tougher then we imagined...5.5 hours of hiking netted us 1400 ft of elevation, and included some basic climbing (which was a first), blowdown navigation, creek walking, lots and lots of sidehilling, and the dreaded vine maple/slide alder fight for hundreds of yards.

Basically it was awesome/sucked!

But my point being that we have never carried a GPS in the backcountry.  We use topo maps, or we just downloaded a topo map program onto my IPhone which allows us to run it in airplane mode saving the battery. 

I second the opinion that you should just GO.  Try and pick something with some elevation where you can be alone.  It adds to the experience exponentially.  Grab a buddy (or Ms. Smossy) and rock and roll.
