Hey guys, wondering if anyone is still running a Kifaru rambler for day hunts or over nights and how they set it up. Attached a crappy photo of my recent set up. I used the lower straps to hold a compression bag with sleep system and tipi. It was a little floppy and takes a lot of set up to get it right. Anyone have tips? thanks

I use one still. One of my favorite packs. I had gear and 12 days of food on the last trip with it. I use a guide lid, medium belt pouch on left side of belt, small belt pouch and water bottle holder on right side of belt. And I had a medium pocket straight down the back.

With that much food about half of it I had between the top of the pack and the guide lid in a stuff sack. Everything else was in the pack or pockets.

Dirtytough do you strap anything to the bottom area? Or is yours set up with the pack flush to the base of your frame.

I need a kick to the nuts for not buying one when they were making them.

I didn’t on this hunt. Mine is setup with a space on the bottom like original. If I run a tarp/bivy setup I will leave my pad and bag in my bivy and roll that up together and strap it to the bottom sometimes.

It's my absolute favorite and most used Kifaru pack. I actually wrote a full review on it a couple years back, but we didn't publish it since Kifaru stopped making them.

This was last weekend packing out a quarter of my buddy's bull plus all my day hunting gear.

This was walking up to my bull the next day. Just my day hunting gear in the pack.
