User questions & answers

Question:	Suitable for tall people
Answer:	We have released FB Live on Portal! Thank you for your interest in this feature, and we look forward to hearing your feedback!
Question:	Does the pack easily detach from the frame so you can use the frame to pack out elk quarters
Answer:	Hi! Portal currently supports video calling with other Portals as well as phones and tablets with Facebook Messenger app installed. We're working on expanding Portal's capabilities with each software release, so we really appreciate your feedback on features you'd like to see. Thank you!
Question:	Can you pack out game
Answer:	Great question! Portal's Superframe displays Facebook photos, so with a shared album, you can certainly display all the wonderful photos that family members add, in nearly real time.
Question:	How does the pack attach to the frame? Pictures or video would be really helpful
Answer:	Why would this come with the Alexa drop-in feature? That would compete with Facebook's messenger and the way Facebook wants people to communicate with their portal. They'll probably never put software in their hardware that competes with their own software. Just like Amazon doesn't sell any google home/nest product that has the google assistant in it, but allows them to sell the components that don't have the AI software in it.

User questions & answers

Question:	I switched to the hitch pins now I have two bolts missing after a 5 dauy elk hunt, anyone else same issue and how to correct it
Answer:	The Kelty Yukon 48L Backpack frame is aluminum.
Question:	could the rifle holder support a mosin
Answer:	At 5' 10" your torso length will probably be over 16" this making the Yukon too short of a pack to load weight well to your hips.
Question:	Is this pack water-proof
Answer:	Thanks for reaching out! I actually believe we may have a mistake on the description for this pack, as some of our packs has that feature, but not this one. I apologize for that!
Question:	can it accommodate a sleeping bag and mat
Answer:	I think it would work for you, however, there may be better options out there for you, even by Kelty. What killed it for me with this pack, is it did not have load lifter straps. It seemed like too much of the weight was sitting on my shoulders. 1 pack that I absolutely adore, is the Eberlestock Warhammer. It is a heavy pack but carries the weight like no other I've found. It literally makes 50lb feel like 30. Check out some reviews on Google and YouTube.

User questions & answers

Question:	Will a regular school backpack fit on this ? What's the length ( approximately ) from top to bottom
Answer:	Width: 14.5 inches. Depth: 9.5 inches. However, the curved crossbars of the pack frame extend out an inch (for the comfort of your back), which may reduce the effective shelf extension to 8.5 inches, depending upon the specifics of the item. If you need more shelf area, it would be easy to cut and mount a piece of plywood onto the shelf frame.
Question:	What is the weight of this Stansport Deluxe Freighter Aluminum Pack Frame? I have read that it is 2.7 lbs and Amazon lists it at 5 lbs. True weight
Answer:	There is no pack bag that goes with this frame.. you have to find a pack bag For your need and purchase it....
Question:	What are the dimensions of the aluminum tubes? I need to attach an O clamp on the tube
Answer:	Yes, there are lashing straps. I'm not presently at home; I will be able to tell you the length on Sunday. I think this pack will serve your purpose as the hip belt is quite comfy. One down side: then buckles for the hip straps are a bit cheap and easily slip...they can be easily beefed up.
Question:	How big does the hip belt adjust to
Answer:	It most likely will, I would have to know your application for that kind of setup. I use this for packing out elk. It works well for that but I dont carry an additional pack at the same time. If you are going to use it to support the Alice pack and brace it then yes, it will distribute weight better.

User questions & answers

Question:	Can a Bearikade Weekender fit below the pack where the sleeping pad is shown
Answer:	Hello, this is Elise with ALPS Mountaineering. This pack weighs 4 lbs 15 oz. I hope this finds you well. Thanks, Elise.
Question:	Is this backpack good for adults
Answer:	The Alps Mountaineering website says 28 - 40 inches.
Question:	Can a shelf be attached to the bottom
Answer:	Absolutely women can use it. The pack is sized for a person with a torso length from 17-24 inches. If your torso length falls in that range then this pack will work for you. If you do not know your torso length you can measure it in the following way: When determining what size pack to buy, how tall you are is not nearly as important as your torso length. A short-legged person and a long-legged person may be exactly the same height, but require different sized packs. To measure your torso length, you will need some assistance and a flexible measuring device like a tailor's tape. Have a friend measure along your spine from the seventh vertebra (the bump where your shoulder meets the neck) down to a point even with the iliac crest (the top of the hip-bones). The distance along your spine between those two points is your torso length. When measuring for hipbelts, it is important to measure not the waist or where your pants ride, but in the center of your hipbone (1/2 inch below the top of the hips) where the hipbelt should be worn.
Question:	Is this backpack waterproof
Answer:	The Alps Mountaineering pack can carry 80 Lb of gear. However for loads like 80 Lb, you may want to look at a Cabela's Alaskan 1 Pack and Frame.

User questions & answers

Question:	How well does this pack work for women? I'm 5'4" and worried this may be too big. I do need a ~60L pack
Answer:	With a torso range of 14.5-18.5 in (37-47 cm) the Redwing 44 is very much a unisex pack. The best fit will be within the torso range. To measure your torso:Have a friend measure your back. Stand with your back to them and your hands on your hips like you are scolding someone. Your thumbs will point to a stop on your lower spine. Start from this point and measure up to the C-7 vertebrae, which is the one that sticks out of the back of your neck when you touch your chin to your chest. The measurement between these 2 points is your torso length.
Question:	I'm a big ol' fat guy, I have a waist of about 60 to 62 inches. Will the waist belt on this pack be able to buckle for me
Answer:	It fits my 14 x 10 MacBook comfortably with room to spare. What size laptop do you have? I can double check for you.

User questions & answers

Question:	Would it be possible to take this as a carry-on for a plane ride
Answer:	Yes, I hooked mine to the loops on the bottom. There's a loop on each side or you can use the clips on the side, depends on the size of your sleeping bag.
Question:	Is it waterproof
Answer:	It's an internal frame that is very rigid and light weight
Question:	How much does the pack weigh empty
Answer:	Coyote Brown
Question:	Is this size good for packing a tent, sleeping bag, clothes and other small hiking equipment
Answer:	50 liters. It goes from like 40 liters to 50 liters depending on how high you stack and cinch the top. Overall, its a very good entry level bag. Its no Kifaru, Beyond, Kealty, etc. but for the money, it's damn good. It is actually extremely comfortable to wear, even when im wearing my full kit (plate carrier with ESAPI plates, front and back). I use it to workout and for travel. However, in the end, you get what you pay for. The material is cordura "like" but not as heavy duty as the high end bags. Overall though, if you are not trying to break the bank, i highly recommend it.

Product description

VENTAPAK EXTERNAL FRAME BACKPACK ATTACHMENT

Get your pack off your back and enjoy a sweat-free, comfortable, and healthier backpack wearing experience. The VentaPak was created by Mark Dingle when he got fed up with feeling the heat on his back and having embarrassing sweaty dress shirts after biking to work with his backpack. The innovative, lightweight (~12 oz!) design keeps your backpack off your back for major ventilation and airflow.

It's not just for bike commuters though! The VentaPak is great for walking, hiking, traveling, and more. Not only does it keep your back cooler, it distributes weight comfortably and keeps items from digging into your back. It also provides lumbar support and keeps your back from getting hot when pressing into a seat.

If you have many blocks to walk in the city or just love taking tours while vacationing, you'll love how the VentaPak keeps your back cool and dry distributes the weight of your backpack and gives your back the support you need. Enjoy your long walks and travels without worrying about aches and pains at the end of the day.

Turn your day to day backpack into a hiking backpack, outdoor backpack, cycling backpack, and most importantly a comfortable and breathable backpack!

User questions & answers

Question:	Can this be used in a car to prevent sweaty back when driving
Answer:	I looked up what a Bearikade Weekender was (a bear proof canister) but I wasn't sure where you want to put it. This is my son's scout pack. He usually puts his sleeping bag in the bottom of the sack and straps his tent underneath. I suppose you could fit the Bearikade in the bottom of the sack but where would you put your sleeping bag & tent? Only so much space in that thing.
Question:	How do you attach your load to the VentaPak
Answer:	It would depend upon the standards the adult is seeking would be my response. I purchased it for my 10 year old daughter to take to a sleep away summer camp and it has worked excellent for such purposes 2 years in a row. She and her group went on a 4.5 mile hike one-way and spent one night outdoors.
Question:	How much does this item weigh
Answer:	Alps has other frames with shelves...this one did not come with one. There are straps on the bottom of the pack for added items.
Question:	Distance from back to pack? Meaning when in place how far is the pack your back? And is that distance/ flex adjustable? Frequent flyer
Answer:	The fabric is not waterproof.

User questions & answers

Question:	Would this be a good pack to pack out game
Answer:	The pack itself is 65L the + 10L is the 2 5L pockets that come on the 75L pack, which are removable.
Question:	What size pack is shown in the photo?s
Answer:	No it has an internal type frame
Question:	How much weight is the pack rated for? And can a Bow be attached to it while hauling meat
Answer:	There are straps underneath the 10 liter attachment as well as on the outside of the 10 liter compartment. So, you can strap a rifle on the outside of it or take the 10 liter compartment off and strap your rifle to the bag directly. The straps are a bit unwieldy for larger and heavier rifles (still usable), but most hunting rifles and AR or AK platform rifles should be completely fine. Also, the first guy's comment was literally boomer-tier lol.
Question:	Is this pack hydration compatible
Answer:	Mine has a large, full length pocket in the very back and a opening for the hydration tube. There is a Velcro loop for the bladder hook. I keep seeing people say “no” to this question and I always ask myself what product are they commenting about...? Mine is the 65+ and HAS a bladder pocket, Velcro loop for hanging and, an opening for the hose.
