Exo Journal — Hunting Gear

The 2021 Death Hike began with a flight into a remote airstrip, deep in Idaho's Frank Church "River of No Return" Wilderness. Two groups landed at two different airstrips, and upon waving goodbye to the Cessna planes, each group had the goal of hiking out of the wilderness over the next 48 hours.

Your hunt just ended, but the real work is just beginning. If you are packing the animal out on your back, you must load the meat and antlers properly to get the most comfort out of your pack system. This article explains the right way to load your pack and dramatically improve your experience with heavy loads.

All Exo pack systems feature the adjustability you need to fit your unique body shape and size. In this article we will take a look at several photos from real Exo customers and highlight the areas where their pack was adjusted improperly or could be improved upon for optimal fit, performance, and comfort.

Exo Mtn Gear Pack Systems are built for the backcountry, but also work great for mobile whitetail hunters that are carrying treestand or saddle-hunting setups into hard-to-reach "honey holes" on public land or to new places on "the back 40".
