Lets see Redrock Superpack, 2 30L plus pack $240. Northwestcanoe 60L with harness,$144.
Same capacity, $104 less, HMMMM!

NOT affiliated, just know math!!

or you could do it the way I did. Already had a good pack similar to the Kondos Redrock uses----then bought 2 30L barrels from US plastics for a total of $40 (I know they are a little more expensive now) that fit into my pack. Savings of $104 from Northwest and $200 from Redrock. Also you have to factor in comfort---I think the 2 30L are more comfortable to carry---but that is a personal preference, I'm sure others may disagree.

By the way the guys at Northwest canoe are first rate---if anyone needs repair work done on their canoe they come highly recommended. I know shameless plug but they treated me right  :).
