Like my Frostriver Arrowhead your Jr Bushcraft is a beautiful pack. They have an aesthetic that enhances the experience in the woods for me. I am not ashamed to admit that aesthetics is an important part of smoothing it in the woods for me. These traditional materials are also quiet.

Your right about the quality and looks, they certainly take some beating. I saw a Duluth pack on ebay the other day and they wanted $46,000 for it. It turned out to be the prototype canoe pack that the original guy hand made about 100 years ago. It looked a bit battered, so I gave it a miss :) Speak soon brother, all the best, Mark.

Thanks for watching and a good question! I would certainly be ok hiking for several hours with this pack, it is quite comfortable when loaded up correctly. When I do a 50miler over 3-4 days I bring ultralight gear, it just makes more sense to me. The Isle Royale is built for a different type of travel. I love both types of hiking I guess. Hope this helps. Wade

Hello from your friend in Georgia! I am debating getting this pack this fall for day hikes, bush rafting and hike in one or two night camping. Obviously after 4 months you were 100 percent loving this pack. Do you still use and recommend it? I have a nice Osprey backpacking backpack but it is overkill for most of what I do now at age 60. Plus I do love the aesthetics, feel and nostalgia of this pack. Is it worth the investment or should I spend money on other gear and continue to use my Osprey pack?

I've always wanted one, but shied off at the price of $330 - US. Then, last year my daughter got me a gift card for $50. Word got back to her that I still wasn't going to pay that much, but might get a handkerchief - if the make 'em. Then, this Christmas my daughter got me a $100 gift card. That did it. Mine should be here on the 10th. They don't make hankies.

Hey Big Guy...why the Jr. pack??? I figured you for Sr. size buddy!!!...LOL man i've eye-balled this thing to death but i just don't do enough of that style of packing to justify it. Frost River is a favorite on my homescreen and i just love the HEADY-duty stuff like this. Amazing materials and build quality. Actually i can see why you went with the Jr because it looks like a large pack already...i was just kidding. I am curious which Silky saw you have? I have a Dustrude and a GB SM axe and haven't even used it yet. It's killing me!

Hey buddy, we both have ULA Ohms you may as well get a FR too lol! 😁 The Silky was the 240, it seems to be a good size. I have the Dustrude as well, I think yours would look great in a Frost River bucksaw bag strapped to the side of FR pack 😁! Take care talk to you later!

Hi! I gave the specs in the vid but totally cinched down it's less than 30 litres. If you loosen all the straps and extend the top flap and the flaps in the pockets, or basically " overstuff " it it can take much more. Frost River claims 48l. It certainly can take much more than 30 l in my opinion. Thanks for watching! 👍👍

As I'm discovering, your eye for quality is keen. That's a fine pack! Now, I think you might be interested in the following ... Schnee's boots, made in Bozeman, MT. If you should decide to pull the trigger, be sure to get an extra pair of liners and a bucket of Montana Pitch Blend dressing. Their 13 inch Hunter II boot is right up your alley and will work perfectly in your environment. Another spendy item to be sure but it seems you don't have a problem with that. Schnees.com
