Well that's good to hear. I guess I just need to choose between the OV and Muley Freak then. I guess Marsupial is still in the conversation as well. So many options ;)
The OV is definitely one of my contenders. Looking at Marsupial and Muley Freak Traverse 2.0 as well. I'm a bit concerned that the back portion of the harness of the OV and Muley Freak have excessive extra material that will cause more sweating when moving up the mountain with a pack. The...
