I finally received my Mystery Ranch Dragonslayer! Waited almost four weeks for it to arrive in the Netherlands but is was worth the wait. First impression is WOW! What quality!
I wanted a pack that was not too big but with a load bearing hip belt. I will use this for day hikes with the wife and daughter. I'll be carrying all our stuff, change of clothes for the little one, rain gear and maybe a tarp, FAK, water, camera etc. The missus will carry the girl.
The hip belt is very comfy and the tri-zip design is a nice feature. I'll be doing a full review when I have the time and after I've used it for a while. In the meantime here are some shot's:
Tri-zip. The middle zipper goes under the flap up and starts at the word 'Mystery'. It has to rain up before any water goes in.
The color is foliage, I used a graycard to set the whitebalance. It's more gray than green, I like it a lot. I also have an foliage Kifaru E&E G2 on order and I'm very curious what Kifaru foliage looks like.
Waist belt is the 'upgrade' live wing. Very comfy. The belt can be stowed away in the pack when not needed. Nice feature. The Futura yoke is in height adjustable and has a plastic framesheet. My wife is a tad bit shorter than I am and we can both use the pack with the medium belt and medium yoke.
Opened pack. Water bladder compatible with a loop to hang the bladder on.
All in all, a very nice pack, 2300 cubic inches and with the soon
I hope, to arrive E&E I can expend it with another 1000 cu.
