    Second Cactus gear. Started with Macpac. All my packs have switched over to Cactus for climbing and tramping. And travel. Solid as a brick s*** house. Not cheap but kiwi made and quality seldom is.

    +3 for the Cactus gear. I have a Foray and a Miklat. Great packs. Very comfy.
    The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds

    Yeah! Got those... and a Deepwinter and an Alpine Henry and a Zero. Cactus whore I am. Mind I use to work in a gearshop and that certainly helped.
