Would have been interesting to hear Aron’s take on this nearly-direct copy of the ARK frame…...he had a few comments when they came out with the FAS pack......

All that is old is new again. That is basically a Dwight Schuh/Coleman Peak 1 circa 1988.
Makes me want to find the original Elk Talk VHS tapes...of course i wouldn't have a way to play them

I have a Peak 1 in the garage. Glass filled nylon is a bad choice for a pack frame if you want rigidity.
I had a hind quarter and front shoulder on one load out. Below the road several thousand feet packing out. Exhausted when I reached the road, I let the frame just slide off my shoulders. The frame bent over with the load when it hit the ground. They did have some flex.
