Exo Mountain K4?

[roosiebull]

Sorry, I am confused - Rockslide is making a bag that fits on the K4 frame? Or Rockslide is coming with a whole new frame and pack?

RS is designing a bag for the k4 in collaboration with exo

I had no idea - excellent. I will wait and see if it is a panel loader. Any information on when it will become available?

I’m not sure, maybe a timeline has been mentioned, but I haven’t heard it. What I’ve read so far is intriguing

I was going to get a 7k, but I’m for sure waiting on this bag before I get another bag

My 3600 and 2200 will get me by until the new bag is released

Where was this mentioned before? Did they take long time user feedback?

No idea how I missed it.

I don’t remember what thread I was reading about it (hopefully someone will chime in) but no RS feedback, they are building a bag that THEY think is correct

That’s really the only way to do things like that, because we certainly aren’t going to agree with what’s best I’m glad they are keeping our pea brains out of it and looking forward to what they come up with

The new bag is being designed by the Shoot 2 Hunt crew (including Form) and is very different from our current bag designs. It is a different bag for a different purpose and hunt style (example).

The bag is built for the K4 Frame and will be available as a bag-only option, or as a complete system with bag, lid, and frame.

The current best guess is shipping in July, but that may change. More info/details to come when S2H has the design 100% finalized, we have a production schedule built, etc.

Any word on the UL that's been hinted at for a while?

Still working on it. Development and testing will continue (and expand) this year. The earliest launch would be 2026, but that is TBD.

After answering two posts and essentially saying, "keep waiting", let me share something new that is ready...

K4

Finally, a 48oz "tallboy" Nalgene holder that offers perfect placement, efficient access, and rock-solid support on your pack's hip belt. Made in the USA.

Mark, will this make the tall boys sit further back
/down away from the users ribs/arms?

Yes, the bottle will sit lower compared to a 48oz Nalgene in the standard K4 Holder, which will reduce contact between the bottle and your arm. We changed the mounting point for that exact reason.

Having had a 3600, I think I would like a 3600-ish bag with a design similar to the 2200. Add two straps at the top (like a crib?) to keep top secure for when the bag is separated from the frame and help secure heads or odd loads, and allow some pleat outwards on side pockets. Use case: Rockies big game hunting early season to not super cold. Access to gloves, hats, snacks, water purification, and layers with little or no fiddling with straps. Food for thought.
