ROKMAN Life

The ROKMAN team traveled to northern Alberta for a fly-in black bear hunt with Misty River Outfitters, combining world-class bowhunting, incredible northern pike fishing, and unforgettable time with family and friends. Follow the adventure from Gypsy Lake Lodge and discover why the best hunting trips are about more than the harvest.

The patented ROKMAN MetaMorph™ Quick-Change System lets hunters swap packs, frames, and load configurations in seconds. Built around the Core-Flex Harness, it delivers fast adaptability without sacrificing waterproof protection.

After harvesting his brother’s first moose in Alaska, Brandon put ROKMAN packs and the carbon fiber Pack Frame through a demanding mile-long pack-out. The system carried meat, hide, and antlers securely across multiple heavy trips.

Before hiking into New Zealand’s rugged backcountry, every ounce of gear had to earn its place. Follow Brandon’s complete 10-day packing strategy, from waterproof hunting packs and mountain boots to camp organization, food, and lessons learned before the hunt even began.

After weather delays, a dangerous flight approach, and days of rain, snow, and fog, the ROKMAN team finally found its opportunity. Watch the full Alaska mountain goat hunt as Brandon and Matt harvest two mature Billies and put their waterproof gear to the test.

Packing for an Alaska mountain goat hunt requires more than just good gear. Follow Brandon’s complete backcountry packing list, including shelter, optics, clothing, food, emergency equipment, and the waterproof hunting system he trusts for one of North America’s most demanding hunts.
