The primary base platform for the EMOD™ system with a constantly growing number of accessories. Build it up to be a multi-day expedition pack, or go in light so you can come out heavy.

Tested to hold more than 1300 lbs., this ultra-rugged frame utilizes top of the line zippers to allow the attachment of a variety of packs and accessories to fit any backcountry hunt. The Mainframe™ is fully adjustable and completely user configurable with endless combinations. 

ULTRALIGHT SETUPS

  • Use the Vapor 2500 or 5000 for any length adventure with ultra-light considerations. 
  • Use 2 Batwings when you plan to go in light and come out heavy. Stay quick, light, and mobile with the Batwings. They are intuitive and make packing out meat simple.
  • The Bolt Action Scabbard and EMOD Lid are great options to carry your rifle and gear handsfree.

MID-RANGE SETUPS

  • Pair with the Basin or Batwings for a 2-4 day hunt. Pack all of your gear into the backcountry and when you reach camp and drop your gear, unzip the duffel or dry bag and hunt in your ultralight Batwing setup.
  • If you like the organization and function of a backpack, the new Vapor 5000 is the ideal choice for a 2-5 day trip. Allows for top-loading or front-loading access and use the Mainframe when it is time for some heavy lifting.

Redefined The Greatest Pack

Bought a main frame many years ago, it has been through all kinds of adventures. On this last adventure I got lost with only a hand full of trail mix and no food or water for 10 days. I knew which way was east but I was so deep in the mountains, and there were so many mountain ranges and valleys to cross. That climbing up and down them and pushing through thick bushes became too much, there was a point I could only hike for around 5 minutes before collapsing. That’s when I knew I had to drop all my gear, eventually I got back to the highway.

Once I got home the time came to get a new pack, I didn’t have to think about which pack I was going to get. It was going to be another Main frame set up, and I really like how the new hip belt pulls to the center to tighten, it makes a big difference when you have the belt loaded with pouches, and the way the harness and belt are set up it makes the load feel lighter.

Can’t say enough about the mainframe. I love the versatility and ease of which to change out bags and accessories depending on need. The frame is extremely durable and has held up to all the punishment I have put it through. The shelf makes hauling meat a breeze and comfortable. I liked it so much that I bought another for my daughter.

Truly does it all

I usually use Eberlestock bags at work, so instead of trying the competition, Kuiu, Stone Glacier, etc I gave eberlestock a shot. Not only does this frame come with options. It’s damn durable, I took a nasty spill while glassing off a cliff face. The frame didn’t snap or break after taking a large fall over multiple boulders - Yes, I was still wearing the frame (along with a 2500 series eberlestock bag (Vapor I think it’s called?) regardless, it didn’t bend or break. I still load it up with lots of weight and it performs like new everytime. At seriously a fraction of the cost of its competitors. I won’t say it saved my life, but I will say it saved my hunt. - that’s good enough for me.
