It's big. But that's what it was designed for.
Here are some initial photo's and thoughts about the new S2H bag that was designed and built for the K4 frame.
I've just had this for just over a week so it's only been packed around in a truck and shot off of. I was hoping to pack out a bear but my hunting partners couldn't spot any of them.......
Of course the first thing I did was weigh it. 6.5 pounds on my scale and that is a size large. I believe it's around 7000 cubic inches and its features are meant for later season trips where one doesn't have to access the main bag to get to their gassing setup and warm clothes. Side pockets can hold a FULL size spotter, 15x cased binos, puffy clothes, etc. They connect together with a top and bottom buckle which goes over the face of the pack which has a bungee cord. This can house a sit pad, shooting bag/rest, jacket, etc. Great feature......very useful. This also goes along with the bungees that are on top of the lid and one inside the lid for secure storage. Think stove.
Two other features that stand out are dedicated trekking pole holders that are easy to access, out of the way and my favorite feature is........the separate sleeping bag compartment. In these photos, there is a Durston Xmid 2 with poles, 20 degree quilt, sea to summit ether light XR, pillow, windshirt and plenty of room for additional items. You can also access the main bag through this compartment via a zipper. I basically had this packed with everything for a 3 day bear hunt.
More updates to follow from others along with myself.
