I have more pics of some tweaks I did on the top of the frame sheet to bag attachment set up, that allows me to lock the top of the bag back up to the frame without interference in removing the bag from the frame. .
As Luke stated it is a pain to unhook everything , especially the K clips etc and the rehook it up. So I came up with a system that lets me do it with minimal effort, not having to mess with a single k clip- it is all quick release buckles now.
Keep in mind as stated this will put the load out from your back and cause you to really lean forward- not desirable. Ok for short hikes under a mile or 2.
I only utilize this on the first load with camp still in bag- once back to base, it all gets emptied and now I can haul in the bag or continue to run between bag and frame.
On one of my other bag set ups, I didn't want to hike the nearly 1000' elv change for the meat, so I was able to haul one elk rear qtr and one frt qtr at the same time. All boned in. I got the entire meat package out in 3 trips, one being much easier, but it was all down hill with the heavies. This was a mature elk and he was huge.
This system isn't for everyone, but for me- it gets the job done.
