That right there is damn near the old Mountian Ruck I was carrying in '88.

I got a regular Large Alice Pack in School and thats what I started using after I graduated.

I have been reading about their packs on the web site and I have had a change of mind.

*Their stuff is American Made!
* High quality and will outlast me !
* In a few more years China made stuff will cost more !!!
* PLenty of options and upgrades.
* Olive Drab and Coyote Brown are standard.

If I decide I just can't do without a new pack then I'll splurge and buy a Zulu at $247 considering my options.
