Hiking/Hunting Backpack?

Pancake Ef

I'm looking for a good hiking backpack. I will obviously use it for hiking/hauling camping gear. I do go on hiking/hunting trips. So It may carry ammo etc. So it will have to carry a lotttt of junk.

I prefer it to be water proof, I don't like bright colors, because I will also double this as a SHTF situation backpack too ha.

Any links would be much appreciated. I will not spend more than $200.

I use the Cabela's Extreme Alaskan Outfitter Pack with Frame it is more @$240.us They have a smaller version @$160.us

Frame packs are best for the big game wilderness hunter as these have greater carry capacity for bulk objects ie a big horn sheep or elk and a set up to carry our firearms. There is also a wheeled version. I don't know of any other supplier that carries these or even compares to these, and you pay for what you get.

68 litre backpack for travel in NZ and Australia?

I will be traveling in NZ for 4 weeks and Australia for 2 weeks. I will be there from this June to July, which is your winter. My question is I will be using a 68 litre backpack that has good back straps/hip support but no wheels. I feel if I buy a bigger pack that does have wheels I will have difficulty carrying it when I have to.
For anyone who has backpacked before, any advice.
I am male, 19 years old, in fit shape, but have a small frame.

Answer
Check out regular sports shops, and ask for a camping backpack (search online for DofE backpacks) they're comfy with thick shoulder straps so they don't cut in, and they strap with a wide belt around your waist so that not all of the weight is on your shoulders. You can also attach items to the outside of the backpack and there are varioud outside pockets to store stuff you may need during the day time; snacks, etc.

Good luck with your trip and have fun!
