[QUOTE="Litehiker, post: 1250912, member: 54178"] Dave, 4.5 lbs. is within reason. Back in Pennsylvania I had a large (2,000 cu. in.) hunting daypack with a "Deer Sleigher" roll-up plastic sled strapped on. I'd lash my deer on the sled and drag it out. Out here in Nevada distances are too long for a roll-up sled (with no snow) so I need a framed pack to begin the first of two or three trips packing out bone meat. So far I'm using my light Osprey EXOS 58 backpack. Not really ideal as it's made for a max load of 45 lbs.. I may get sturdier frame pack for this purpose or use my much larger (7,500 cu.in.) Dana Terraplane internal frame pack. But that **** pack weighs 7.5 lbs.! Eric B. [/QUOTE]
