Bill's Pack - The guys are playing a joke on me here by putting the Maxim in my pack!

During the hike, I felt a sore area on my back. I found that the frame had cracked and was scraping my back.  Time to get a new pack (after 20 years). It led to an embarrassing moment when I stopped at a switchback to apply duct tape over the abrasion, when a lady hiker came around the bend while I had my pants down and the roll of duct tape in my hand.  Boy, did she get out of there fast.
