Rucksack disaster, advice sought plez

[The Local Ned]

I've had a little experience of these patrol sacks...IIRC we had 70l jobs that had detachable sidepockets , these could be zipped together to form a little daypack thing , useful for out on a little short trip or if on a recce - main bag could be dumped at a cache and emergency gear / kit taken in the small daysack. The tech involved in these things has skyrocketed now , the moray bag looks good btw , no unneccessary bits hanging off , and very compact for a 35l pack.
