it sucks having to pull everything out to get to the treasures that lie at the bottom of this pack. on my osprey i just had to unzip the bottom and boom there’s my quilt and sleeping pad.
it was an interesting choice for granite gear to use sandpaper on the lower back area. not great for very bony pelvises. it doesn’t help that i done got so much food in this pack. i have two bags of chips on the outside, also a bag of bagels and a bag of strawberries that don’t fit in my food bag.
i have lost my knife somewhere so i used my nail clippers to cut a segment off of my z-lite to use for padding on my poor skin and protruding bones.
i really hope this helps because these miles were miserable. i spent the whole time thinking about my poor osprey sitting in a big box at the post office. i don’t want to have wasted the money on getting this new pack, that would really stink.
what’s it like having something other than bones and skin and gorgeous calves in your body
update: i did arts and crafts to make extra padding for my poor hips and it’s still not great. only about 60 more miles until i’m reunited with my good old red menace
yeh i can still be there with you too, past gadget. sorry we jumped into that bag but the red menace also was bad for you. sorry about that whole bones and skin thing too, it’ll keep being a hurdle to deal with.
bottom zipper packs are clutch. my pack style ain’t fit for these lithe kits.
morale was bottoming out here 100% just go to another story that isn’t as hopeless please
