    cheers
    Last few packs were Huntech and Macpac. The Macpac was hopeless, but was an alpine pack not designed for heavy loads. My Cactus is pretty good under load but I have really yet to put it through its paces on a large multi day trip and haul out. Im confident it will be great. The harness is very comfortable. Its a heavier pack but is not overly noticeable due to good load distribution via the harness.
