    Got one last year. Jump on it people. That pack is one of the best built packs I have ever used. Carries weight so well. I'm actually confused how it carries weight so well.
    And I actually don't really see the need for a smaller pack. It compresses so well and thin. My everyday pack when I don't have a giant camera bag on my back. I also use it for filming on slope with a little camera insert to put my camera and a couple lenses in.
    Can't say enough good things about it.

    ^^^ if that doesn't convince you nothing will.

    last bump, we should be good with a few more.

    nothing in this for me, just think they are good people with a great product.

    Well done maggots, that was a solid 4th quarter rally.

    Now, if some of you Northwestern mags could send some snow down to CO it would be much appreciated.
    I don't like being outdoors Smithers, for one thing, there's too many fat children.

    address (bill/ship)
    color (red/black)
    size (see site-waist and height)
    billing info (cool to send check as well I think-just note that)

    please note that I did this just because I dig the pack and the company (and the fact that BCA took 3 weeks to say no), so all further
    questions (other than last minute lurkers that want in) should be sent to Ben.

    Excellent! Thanks again to all involved.

    In case this info helps anyone else:

    I just called MR to inquire about waist belt sizing. I wear 36" waist in most every kind of pants, and pretty much always expect to fit either L or XL in stuff that's sized that way. The person I spoke with indicated that MR is pretty true to the described size, with the exception that the Blackjack belt may run about an inch small. So if you're 38", you might want to go L. Another possible factor is that their recommended sizing assumes "normal" clothing, as opposed to a ton of bulky layers.

    If anyone else has insight on this, I'd be interested to hear it.

    Hey guys,
    Ben here from el Rancho. As per the sizing question: Most of the time, we are pretty much right on in regards to harness sizing. There are exceptions though, such as wearing bulky clothes ALL the time. I'd suggest if you are on the fence with this one, go up a size.

    Any pictures of the backpack in black? I'm probably just not smart enough to find it on the website, but would be interested to see one if there's an image or two...

    Pretty sure most people on this board owe Otto a few beers for the various group buys he's coordinated.

    Here are a couple pictures of the Black Blackjack I found online. Pretty sure the 1st one is the blackjack, not sure about the 2nd one but if so it looks like a couple changes have been made: Compression straps have metal fasteners instead of plastic clips and the logo placement has changed, maybe the loop too? Seems like the pack is all black stealth which I like very mucho!

    Edited post, to correct my previously incorrect claims.

    Black is like red, but with all the red changed to black. Looks real slick. I think it's exactly what skiwithcharlie has in his first pic.

    I have a photo from MR and I'm presently trying to evolve into a higher lifeform, one that knows how to put pictures on tgr. (success! see post on next page)
