Thanks for the update!

Sold to bbranan pending funds...sent you a pm

Agreed it's all about fit. I'm hit or miss on LS, Kayland is a sure fit every time.

Prices?

$150 shipped

+1 on Omega-3, via fish oil can be decent actually. Barlean's brand lemon swirtl is quite tasty, and has helped me w/ inflammation and nerve issues. Pretty cheap if you get it at Costco. Good for you for wanting to get back at it!

Forgot to mention it has a removable hipbelt as well.

Hyperlite Mountain Gear Expedition Porter. Size L (19-21 torso), like this one: HMG 4400 Porter, but has a single ice axe loop and a hydration port installed. I also had them use their beefier stay. I've had 60# in it and it's amazing how well it handles loads for it's weight. Some cosmetic wear and dirt, no rips, holes or seam issues. I'll toss in a Granite Gear pouch that I've had lashed on the side. Sweet pack, just don't find myself reaching for it much these days. I have an HMG WindRider w/ a lot of miles, great packs! Buyer can look it over for a day and return if not as described. $175 shipped

9 times out of 10 I end up sizing up in Montbell compared to others. I have an XL thermawrap and roll w/ a large in most things. I'm 6'2" 190, long arms, average shoulders for what it's worth.

Bozeman's usually well stocked w/ airbnb and vrbo options...good luck and have fun!
