>>2123353Been out hiking with my ALICE pack for the past two months with ammo in it as weight for exercise purposes. Lugging 50 to 70 pounds up a mountain was fun the first two times, but it has since become more of a chore than rewarding exercise. I think I have begun to destroy one of my knees, so I'm giving this exercise experiment a rest & just taking my bladder with me.
tl;dr: ALICE packs are great & very reliable.Just don't be a retard like me & take only what you need if you are going /out/.
