@mountainsforeverybody just more comfortable,plus I seem to pack more in( not always a good idea with me) 🤭 I tend to pack quite well....Plus they seem heavier..
@OldtricksForolddog This about packing more may make sense because the shape is not so rigid as in a framed pack, so I understand the point. And framed are expected to be heavier for obvious reasons.
Thanks for this info!
Most welcome.
I don't use frames..
Interesting. Could you share why? I listed some possible reasons, so is your one of them?

I never hike more than 15 miles at any one time..

@mountainsforeverybody but I need to take certain items..as I tend to camp (all the lightweight gear is too expensive), plus my medical equipment ..
