Have you gone out hiking with this pack on your back? Have you done it in the rain, snow, extreme heat or in a day with low visibility after an exceptionally long trek? You should. I saw your inhaler and heavy loads like that will cause you serious trouble in those situations that in a “society collapse” type of thing, help won’t be coming for you. So, if I were you, I’d get to pushing your body to its limits before limits push you. Good luck

Good Evening Aaron and thank you for watching the video. I have indeed hiked with this bag on several occasions in various weather. I also often hike with a Deuter child carrying backpack and a child over 40 pounds, plus gear. As I am sure we can all agree on, we prepare for the worst while hoping for the best. Carrying an inhaler is one of those items. I haven't used it in years, but its there for that "what if" scenario if needed. I do appreciate your feedback. Thanks for watching.

Have you considered a Sawyer Water filter as a backup to your Katadyn? I like them because of the screw on feature that lets you fill 1 & Two Liter Pop Bottles. MY thought is you could use that to fill other people's plastic bottles to help them out in an emergency, while preserving the Katadyn for you & your family. I have the Katadyn Hiker Pro & a Life Straw. I'm planning to buy 2 or 3 more life straws to be able to give out in a true SHTF. I'm ALSO going to get a Sawyer AND a Renovo, the Renovo, if I like it, will replace the Life Straws, due to the Renovo's third stage Carbon Element to remove unpleasant tastes from grasses & such. This coming Saturday, I'm being installed as My Church's Disaster Response Officer. I've had MUCH training, take this subject matter VERY seriously, and I walk the walk.

We really like the Sawyer water filters. The Kids always have their Sawyer Squeeze with them. I carry a spare Sawyer in the truck, and have the Sawyer Minis in most of the bags. It's always a good idea to review the items in your bags, and water being as important as it is it would probably be a good idea to add a Sawyer Mini to the bag. I havent personally looked into the Renovo, would like to hear your thoughts on it once you try it out.

Hi Bruce, I haven't field tested the tarp yet. Its on my list to do, just haven't had time yet. The tarp is made by Outdoor Products (amzn.to/2hjpIhm) and is a thin urethane coated fabric (nylon perhaps?) It has several grommets (which could tear out rather easily), I usually prefer using tarp clips as well. Its big enough to make a small ridge-line, but I would be concerned about it lasting through higher winds. I have found a few reviews on youtube if you search for the product name.

I think it needs to be just a little bit larger. The Velcro fastened bottom pouch holds my Handheld Ham Radio, A couple Antenna's, mic, and batteries in the rear pocket. The front pocket holds my small medical kit. If the entire design was just Two Inches wider, I could fit everything I plan to carry in the pack as an EIGHT Day Emergency Kit.. I got the food into the middle pouch just fine. The Main Compartment could be 3/4 inch deeper as well. For 99% of Gyrfalcon Owners, the design is FABULOUS! My needs are a little different, however. I'm going to need a couple of Condor 4 X 4 pouches on each side of the Hip Belt. I'm also considering a wider Maxpedition Bag to put in place of the current tear away unit; I can put some Hook strips on the back of that with Fabric Glue, which I THINK will work well, and have a minimal visual impact on the overall appearance of my Gyrfalcon. OR, I'll find a same width, but DEEPER Khaki bag, and do the Fabric Glue job on IT instead. If this works, I'll have a friend make a YT Video, showing what I've done if successful. I WILL MAKE NO MODIFICATIONS WHAT-SO-EVER TO THE GYRFALCON OR THE TEAR AWAY BAG-ALL WILL BE KEPT ORIGINAL. I'm an Engineer, so I think I CAN come up with something that will solve my problem and still be visually appealing AND consistent with my Gyrfalcon's current appearance. If the prototype mod IS successful, I plan to share it with Maxpedition. Everyone I have shown this pack to LOVES it! Personally, even with the minor unexpected issues I've encountered-simply because of my gear requirements as there is NOTHING wrong with the pack itself, I am WELL pleased with the quality and feel it is worth the money I paid for it!

Sometimes it just doesn't work out, but it sounds like you have a good plan to address this. Would love to see the video on the mods you make to the bag as well as the contents you decided to use. I do agree I wish it was a bit wider, it would have made it much easier to fit everything in the bag, but then again I would have just added more "stuff" to it and been back in the place with it being too heavy.....

An update on the Backpackers Pantry. My wife & read the Ingredient Panels. Sadly, MOST of the Backpacker's Pantry entree's have very LOW actual FOOD value! Mountain House has a fairly new line of Ultra Compressed packaging on some of THEIR entree's, Similar to the LRP (Long Range Patrol Meals), ALSO, I believe, made by Mountain House. What I DON'T(!) like about the LRP's is the even HIGHER Salt Content! A few days ago, I tried the Backpacker's Stroganoff. The Mountain House tastes MUCH better IMO. Furthermore, after I ate the Backpacker's Stroganoff, I became sick to my stomach. Speaking ONLY for myself, I plan to stick with the Mountain House, and reduce them down into my own Vacuum Sealed pouches to emulate the packing style of the Backpacker's. One last item is the Mountain House, at least in my area, costs slightly less.
