Kuiu packs are made in Asia. Stone Glacier and Kifaru packs are MADE IN USA. Up here in Alaska, Stone Glacier is the most popular pack among sheep hunters.
It’s a mix of what people like to hunt with. If one brand was the most popular it would be all we would hear about. Stone Glacier looks good, but see quite a bit of feedback that they’re not comfortable and they have really poor options for having plenty of compartments/pockets to keep the pack organized and easy to get to items. Same deal with some other brands as well. Lot of good feedback with Kuiu. Looking forward to upgrading to the Pro 6000 at some point.
Please tell me why the new version removed the lower compartment with compression straps as it was on the old version of icon Pro ? it was much more convenient !
Mostly sticking with previous patterns just because it's what we already have... But we have used Valo on a couple hunts and have been very impressed with the pattern!
Hello. please tell me, 6000 cubic ounces is how many liters ? in our country, backpacks are measured in liters and I do not understand its size . and if you can , tell me the height and width of this backpack ! thanks
@@Tyler-vw9bh Yes, I already know, thank you . but they didn't answer me the size of the length and width . because the measurement in volumes is different for everyone ! one manufacturer's 80-liter backpack is the same as another manufacturer's 100-liter backpack !
We don't have that pack in the office currently sorry, but I can tell you the 6000 is a very large pack, and most of the exterior pockets have adequate loft for extra storage. Even when we pack for a multi day backpacking hunt, this pack has more than enough space.
We've loaded the pack pretty darn heavy and haven't had any issues. The plastic knob is channeled into the carbon fiber so it keeps the tension of the velcro pulling straight up, and not away.
@@huntinfool_official Awesome! Thanks for the reply. I actually just bought their 7800 kit so I'm glad you validated my decision in some small way. Thanks for what you do

Does the Frame come with the Backpack when you order it? Or does it come separately?
Because isaiah said so!
Are you guys running more and more Valo now that its out, or staying with Vias and Verde ?

It is cubic inches. Try converting that to litres.
like 98 L

What bag is in the intro?
mystrry ranch beartooth 80
Looks like that frame is an XL...?
Hmmm I don't think so but that was a little while ago, I can't recall
Is it 6000 with the lid or 5200 and then 600 with the lid
Seems like a lot of weight riding on velcro. Is that ever a problem?

@@Whiskey.Tango.Actual of course! Hope you enjoy it!
Does the detachable lid convert to a fanny pack or satchel in any way or is it just detachable?
Thanks!
@@jarednelson1865 i switch from a bag to the load carrier and strap a pouch and my lid to it.
