Is it safe to soak the frame with the composite stays? The buildup includes wood. I soaked the whole frame a while back after a bear pack out. I have two deer pack outs now. I have it pretty well disassembled with the lumbar pad and hip belt in the tub now. That is with the padding in the lumbar pad removed. I figured that out last washing. I just don’t want to mess up the stays with repeated washing.

I pulled my stays when I did an overnight soak. With small amount of added time to disassemble, it seems worth it to me.
Dont make the mistake I did and leave the damn foam inside. It took a week to dry on top of the heat vent!
