    this was the year I thought... yep I am done buying... I am such a liar.

    If you don't need back support I can recommend Walkstool. I have been sitting on it for hundreds of hours in a blind or just anywhere. The quality and comfort is great. A back support just gets in the way for me when I'm in a blind. It has large rubber feets so it won't sink in to the ground as...

    Dt1 and Grab it, dumb question

    x2 I have also made it like that. Right now I have moved the female buckle all the way to the top of the frame just to not have to use the extra lash straps. It works like it was intended with the triangle's at the middle of the frame, but if you're carrying odd items It sometimes work better...

    Timberline Bag Divider

    I would never cut it out since the divider was one of the reasons I chose timberline over highcamp.

    GPS map with elevation info

    I'm using basecamp and a garmin map I bought over my area (not USA) from garmin and I have elevation plots. Doesn't garmin have those kind of maps for USA? Sometimes this site have some info. http://gpstracklog.com/2010/04/garmin-oregon-450-review.html#resources

    Water Bottle-Kifaru Pack

    How do you get 6 liter in that pocket? :o Do you mean 6 smaller 1/2 liter bottles?

    Kifaru Belt Pouch

    It will fit in a small pouch, but you wont get anything else in there. I tried with an old dslr I had in the closet... a Canon 350D with a 50mm lens and it's a bit higher and deeper and the same width and I could close the pouch.

    Headlamp - What is the Best?

    I've heard a lot of good things about Zebra, but I don't own one. I have a similar head lamp that Zebra makes. It's a Ultrafire UF-H6 and it uses one 18650 battery. It's very durable and it's cheaper than Zebra lights (cost was $38 I think). Since I have a lot of other flashlights that use 18650...

    GPS with Camera

    It depends on what you are going to use the camera for. Like Bradb said, it's really nice to use it instead of saving a waypoint or similar sometimes, but you can't really use it as a camera for images because the quality isn't good enough. There's no menus that's in the way like Muleman is...

    Sleeping Pads

    Have anyone tried the REI Flash Insulated Air Sleeping Pad? What are the options if I want a light, insulated mummy-shape pad that is wide (stomach sleeper)? Insulation down to around 15°F.

    IT'S HERE! (Bikini+DT2) - and I have questions...

    Ok, thanks Aron. I have already done some experimenting. :o Well, I have removed the larger 3 bar sliders from the waist belt pocket since I don't need them there. I cut the middle bar, removed it, removed sharp edges from cutting, slide them on the loops at the bottom of the bag and frame, and...

    IT'S HERE! (Bikini+DT2) - and I have questions...

    I have NO DOUBT that the pack will work fine when it's on my back fully compressed and with all straps closed. That's not the issue here. The issue is mainly when using it as a daypack, putting it on and off and stuff in and out of the pack. Lifting it from the ground and move it a few yards...

    I need to check the cost of calling USA from Sweden first. :o

    I think they work now.

    IT'S HERE! (Bikini+DT2) - and I have questions...

    Yes it attaches at the top but that's all... You write that it also attaches lower on the pack. Was it the same as on bitteroot bulls image? I really don't like that you "have to" use a side compression strap to get the bag close to the frame. One reason is if you loosen the compression strap to...
