You will have to take a picture of that pack loaded up. I am looking at the same 3,500 pack for the same style of hunting. 3-5 miles to set up camp and then hunt from their, but coming back to camp every night for about 6-7 days. I am going back and forth between whether I want to go with the 3,500 or the 5,500. Let me know how the 3,500 works for you?
Get 5500. I've been home 2 days from a 7 day backpack elk hunt, had to strap stuff sacks to the outside of the pack because the volume just wasn't enough. My pack list would resemble most on here. 3500 Is not big enough for a week.
