Story:
Decided to test out my distance over uneven teraine.10+ mile in the city with 20-24 lbs in the pack doesn't compare with 7 +'- miles with 27 lbs on a trail. Brought most of what I would take on a 3-4 hike that I have and added extra weight with water. The elevation changes and uneven terrain defiantly make a difference. I had my first pack failure today so I will see whether or not Osprey lives up to their guarantee. The only unique wild life I saw were Sandhill Cranes which freaked me the hell out because they are loud as hell and almost as tall as me. When I first saw them in the distance thought there was an emu up ahead. sandhill cranes  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nuhmEuTr_Bo
