Welcome to the Monday Minute. Last week we skipped the show because we were just coming off of

the Death Hike and that's what this week's full show of the podcast on Wednesday will be about

recapping the Death Hike. It's going to be a good time. We have some great stories to share

as well as some lessons learned so hopefully you guys tune in for that. This week's Monday Minute

is actually not a minute. It's a really long show. It's a bonus episode. Steven, I basically sat

But we get so many questions. We thought it would be good to take this week's Monday Minute and

kind of make it this bonus episode answering all kinds of packed questions. Whether you're interested

in Exxon Mountain Gear packs or just hunting packs in general, this show will help you out. We

questions and what is our take, what are our answers and you might be surprised by some of them.

So hope you guys enjoy this one. Be sure to tune back in this week for the full show recapping the

Death Hike. It'll be a good time. As always guys, thank you so much for listening,

for tuning in, for sharing your feedback. You can leave a review in iTunes or Stitcher or

wherever else you might be listening to this and you can always contact us directly by email

So yeah, let's dive into this. We obviously get quite a few questions with Exxon and we've kind

of developed an FAQ page on the site which has been incredibly helpful to point people to

and for people interested in the packs to go to and talk about certain things that come up over

and over again. But we wanted to talk through that a little bit in the podcast as well. So what's
