Exo Journal

To say that I was excited would be an understatement of epic proportions. Having grown up reading stories of adventure in Alaska, it was hard for me to comprehend that I was getting to undertake an Alaskan adventure for myself. Although I had been talking about an Alaskan Caribou hunt for years, I wouldn't believe that it was happening until I stepped foot on the vast Alaskan wilderness.

The K3 Spyder Frame features a reversible frame extension system, offering the ability to easily change the frame height by 1.5" in a matter of seconds. A shorter frame offers increased mobility while hiking, glassing, and hunting with lighter loads. A taller frame provides increased performance with heavier loads. Thanks to the K3 Frame's new reversible extension system, you can harness the advantages of increased mobility with a shorter frame and increased load-performance of a taller frame, as needed.
