    Apollo For a Day Pack?

    I don't usually chime in much around here, but this is something I've been wondering about lately... Every time I see a post about a day pack, I feel like almost every pack gets a mention EXCEPT for the 14'r. What's up with that?! I actually have one on order at the moment, but just...

    Need help deciding between the Kifaru AMR and Woodsman

    Thanks for the input. I was hoping to get one bag that would cover me across a wide range of situations, which I think the AMR will do. But maybe I'll get a woodsman a little further down the road. Between the two, I should have all situations covered.

    Thanks. One last question. Do you happen to know if it's possible to run the side pockets on the AMR while its compressed?

    I'm from northern New Jersey. But you seem pretty happy with your AMR and it's ability to compress, expand, and everything in between. I'm thinking unless someone REALLY convinces me of otherwise, I may just stick with it. I just don't want to have any regrets down the road in the future.

    Yeah, I guess I'm lucky guy. Got some pretty awesome people in my life.

    Oh, I didn't realize that was an option. Definitely going to look into that. That'll probably work better if my weight is going to fluctuate a little as it tends to do, naturally. Thanks!

    Need help deciding between the Kifaru AMR and Woodsman

    That's what I was thinking when I saw the pictures of it online and the videos, then it arrived and I just started second guessing myself. I just want to make sure I end up with the right piece of gear, especially since it's a little on the more high-end/higher-price tag side. Just don't want...

    Need help deciding between the Kifaru AMR and Woodsman

    I know this is going to sound a little crazy. But with my birthday and Christmas being so close together, I'm acutally getting the bag and the frame separately. I guess I was little anxious to see the bag, so I asked for the pack before the frame, so I can't exactly load it up and walk around...

    Need help deciding between the Kifaru AMR and Woodsman

    The flop is exactly what I was worried about. The AMR is pretty big. Day mode seems fine. I was just worried about if I only have one light sleeping bag in there, and a small shelter, and only a two days worth of food. I was worried is was gonna be floppy, or just a little untidy inside with...

    Need help deciding between the Kifaru AMR and Woodsman

    Hey guys, first time posting here.. Looking for a little advice. This will be my first real, quality outdoor pack. I hike and camp, and I'm just starting to get into bow hunting. Here's my question... I like the ability of the AMR to compress all the way down, and feel it would make a good...
