Badlands 2800 Loaded pics

Last year was the first year running a badlands 2800 on a deer hunt. I was able to get both loins and one hind quarter inside with my gear but struggled for lash down points for the head and cape. Does anyone have any picks they would be willing to share showing a head and cape lashed to the outside of the pack?

Before this pack I used a large ruck with frame from my military days. 50' of 550 cord and you can carry a Volkswagon bug :). The Badlands is much more comfy.

Thanks in advance guys.

Here is mine with this years buck attached. I forgot to attach the lower strap. I fixed that after the picture. Great pack. I like it more every time I haul something in it. This year I have hauled a couple mulies and my buddies spike bull.

This was my third season with my new 2800. I still have my old 2800 which I used for two years. Both are still in perfect condition.

hah, yea right. i had an eberlystock j107 for 2 yrs. i used it on 2 solo pack trips, then used it as a loaner for the next year and a half. decent pack, very uncomfortable for me, did break 2 zippers, trying to fit everything i basically 3 very huge and un-organized pockets. the badlands pack is a much better pack IMO. BUT everybady is different and fit is individually specific.
BUT YOUD HAVE TO BE CRAZY TO THINK YOU CANT BREAK A ZIPPER JUST BECAUSE IT SAYS "EBERLYSTOCK" :thumb
