    100+ mile trek ARCTIC CIRCLE TRAIL w/ HALKA 70

    Took a leap of faith, considering somewhat narrow shoulder straps and not a lot of hip padding to hike. The Arctic circle trail with this pack. Starting weight fully loaded with everything for backcountry 10 to 12 day trip was around 52 pounds plus water.

    Lack of load lifters was somewhat overcome by adjusting the way the helmet attaches to the straps, I enclosed the photo to try to demonstrate that. Overall carried the weight well with over 25,000 feet of ascent.

    Was waterproof in rain and sleet. The only modifications that I would suggest would be to make the side pocket "drain holes" smaller

    I also added a small pair of cord loop to the bottom of one of the shoulder straps to help pull down since they are fairly narrow and hard to pull down when the pack is really loaded.

    Great pack with excellent design.

    Exactly what I had hoped!

    Great pack - fits perfectly (size M - I’m 5’9” and 175 lbs and is super light but strong. Lots of storage for things in the side and back of the pack. Only very small downside is there aren’t side zippers (they would add weight) so you need to open the top to get anything in the main compartment. Tradeoff is worth it though - love the pack.

    Halka 70L

    Still confused as to properly attaching my ice axe and hiking pole to this pack. Love everything about it but I wish it had loops at the bottom for holding these tools. Did I miss something? I'm open to any suggestions. Not finding anything online. However I am super happy with the quality of this pack.

    Pretty good

    This is a very good, well thought out pack with one exception: no load lifters. Given the size and weight capacity of this pack, load lifters would make sense. I carried 40 lbs for 3 days over 40 miles and it was tough to get the load on my back right without lifters.
