That pack looks great. I'll be having some of the same mods done by David. Great guy and does great work.
This looks great! I may have to look into a few mod to the highcamp. SHTF, have you ever looked into installing side pockets similar to the Timberline series?
I'm about to do this to my HC 7000. Do you know what size zipper he used? Trying to decide between 8 and 10.
