Anyone have any idea of Aussie sellers of Alice pack frames? (or similar). I had a bit of a google search and found either "out of stock" or only USA sellers.
I found this ripper from ALPS OutdoorZ costs around $100 AUD plus around $55 postage from the US :/, pricey but a good unit. However, I would prefer to buy Aussie if anyone knows of a retailer or even if someone has one they are willing to part with?
I hiked around 4-5km into a spot on Sunday, was not too bad going in, even though I was carrying a couple of buckets with too many tools, water, a small sluice, Banjo pan and set of Garrett pans/classifier.
Coming back.....bloody hell. Carrying all that gear in hand and under my arms mostly uphill at 8pm was not very fun. It was still pretty warm at that time too. I don't mind a bit of a walk lol but I think I might have had a couple too many McDoubles of late, I might be morphing into Todd Hoffman...not sure. I did find gold though so not quite a Hoffman yet!
