10 Days DIY, EXO K4 5000

[ObiWanKannoli]

Managed to make a 10 day DIY trip work out of an EXO K4 5000 pack. Longest trip I've done, the ~5 miles in with a 100 or so pound pack (camp + front loaded food) was not fun!!

Nice setup. I'm ordering a 2200 or a 3600 here next week after I talk with them again.

Go with the 3600, they compress nicely and it's easier to have more room and need less that the other way around.

I've had my 3600 k4 for a year now and really really like it.

4elk packed out, three antelope, and a deer.

Can't go wrong with a exo pack.

Very cool. Did the pack slip at all?

Nice! Until I saw the setup, I was wondering how you pulled off ten days with such a "small" pack. Lol

Love to see your gear breakdown. Do you have a list?

Not the OP, but here is my ultra-nerd'd out 8-day backcountry gear list/breakout for my 2024 elk hunt in BC out of my Exo K4 5000. Tried to upload the Excel file, but the site won't allow it, so its in a PDF. If you want it in the original Excel with all the hyperlinks, you can pm me with an email and can send it to you. No suppressors allowed in CA, so the TBAC Ultra 5 obviously stayed home on this one
