Savanna Portage Pack Review: I bought one of these packs back in 2004 and I've used it hard through five hunting seasons and many canoe/boating trips. Although at times I wish it was a little deeper and a little less high when fully packed(while portaging with a canoe or walking through thick woods), it has been a very durable and dependable pack. I also appreciate that it's American-made, right here in the state which I live! I have purchased 6-8 Battle Lake Outdoor packs and bags of various kinds and have recommended their products to friends and family.
