Wow...that's cool!
It must have been kinda surreal for him to go through that pack.
I have the same, or a very similar VauDe pack.

Does yours have a 20-year-old Snickers inside too?

That's a great video. What an unusual thing to be able to do after all these years. The two videos make me want to watch the movie when/if it comes out.

Alicia, a snickers bar won't last 20 minutes around me.
The Vaude pack has lasted since I bought it used in the early 90's, I don't use it all the time, but it seems to be well made.

This is really great. I wonder if the loft in that bag could be brought back to life.

A sense of closure in that chapter. Very nice indeed.

LOL
I have Spanish Doubloons in mine. I can claim to have lost it in the early 1600s. (kidding of course)

In 2001, I opened a food cache in the high Sierra that I had not seen since 1980. I started placing food caches for month long trips in various National Parks in 1978 in Denali Park in Alaska. I have used them in Denali,Yosemite,Glacier(MT),Grand Canyon, the Ozarks and the High Peaks of New York.
The cache in Yosemite's high Sierra was all still good. I had placed macaroni and cheese, Top Ramen, Lipton noodle/rice meals, dry milk, dry butter (ButterBuds), granola bars, hot cocoa and instant coffee and instant oatmeal in a metal old paint can I had found near Lake Teneya the winter of 1979-80.
Everything was double bagged in Ziploc's. I had left it near a tree with a huge granite boulder on top. The rock was still on top and the tree had actually grown closer to the can. I had left a note inside the top of the can decribing the contents and a note asking anyone who found it to leave it as I would be needing in soon. It took 31 years before I got back to it.
