I just wanted to drop a comment in on lumbar pad - certainly concur there's a real difference after some break in. This k4 system really seems like it molds to your body the more you use it under weight. I think the "too much" lumbar pressure thing does kind of relieve itself after a decent bit of time.

For some reason I can’t find it and thought I saw it on this thread, but didn’t somebody put a fusion bag on a Ranger green frame? If so, can somebody repost the picture???

Just did a mountain goat hunt in SEAK with the K4 7200. We had a 5 hour pack out, and I had half the goat meat in the load shelf and full camp in the main bag. My hunting partner (that got the goat) snapped a photo of us during a particularly fun period, which is cropped to show the pack, forgot to get a photo on the ground.

It was truly impressive how the suspension handled, and how that lumbar pad/belt stays parked. Setting up the load was super easy, and having the extra compression straps on the frame really helped control the meat height within my load cell bag (ie would not let it slip to the bottom).

Another standout, since it rained every single day measured in “inches” (new concept for me) was the dry bag liner. That worked very, very well in practice. Having the extra side pockets, back sleeve and stretch pocket really came in handy.

After some heavier field use, ALL about this pack.
