I used this pack for multi day DIY Elk hunt. It has lots of storage and pockets for organizing gear. The frame and waist are comfortable once adjusted properly. My pack weighed around 60 lbs with gear, bow, food and water and I had no issues. There are lots of straps for cinching everything down which is good however, they are kind of cumbersome for quick access. I did not get to use the overload feature on my hunt but it worked great with a sandbag while I was training for the trip. A couple of upgrades would be deeper side pockets as a Nalgene barely fits and better loops for trekking poles. Overall, it is a really good pack that I plan to use for many years.
