RE: I'm looking for a good, big backpack.
Good topic MOBO, I'm looking for a new pack as well and the Badlands looks like a good one. Troube with the Badlands...at least for me, is that there and notany places near me that carry them. For something like this, I can't order it online...I have to see it first hand and check it out with my own hands and eyes before I'll shell out my $$$.
Speaking of $$$, about how much are the badland packs...say the 2200? Every now and then I'm close to one of the dealers in VA so I guess that could work.
Looks like plenty of dealers for you in MO though MOBO. Not so much central MO, but hey....
