    For those who know: what is a good size for a multi-day hunt backpack?

    Probably needs to include lightweight tent for those times you want/need one. I figure you can always carry less in a big bag, but you can't carry more in a small one.
    You wont go wrong with a Osprey 85lt , bloody good packs. I've got a 70lt one and my brother has a 85lt one but there's virtually no difference in weight between the two, so if you've got meat to pack out the 85lt one is better option. Very expensive though compared to other brands if not on sale.
