Berghaus Munro - an old flame

[MartinK9]

You know the score...

Had one, loved it; reluctantly sold it for an updated Centurio 30.

Then..... saw one on the bay:












In Blue....

Had to have it and pimp it straight away with colour coded pouches:

My first foray into non-cedar for the main pack though.

I still have a munro i bought 10 years ago, they're bombproof bits of kit.

I've only got two backpacks now, a Lowe Alpine Sting with LA pouches, and a Munro. The Munro is a super bag, easily holds water, dog bowl, stove and gas, pan, kettle, sausages etc, Twodogs Raindogs, extra top layer etc. Plus it has fixings for trekking poles.

Had one for 28 years lovely shade of yellow after years of use

I've had one for about 5 years and it's my go to pack for everything except overnighters. That honor goes to my only other pack, my old knackered karrimor sabre. I really like the simplicity and ruggedness of both of them.

I wish I was this contented when it comes to other outdoor gear, namely knives.

Added to the side pocket collection. Two in Purple:

Still need to fix the lid elastic though.

I had one in that shade too, and it was stolen getting on for twenty years ago. It was a fine rucksack and did a lot of duty, I sorely miss it to this day.

What make/model are the pouches Martin ? - the green ones - I've just acquired an old Munro 35 and want some pouches for it

Try Ebay.

Type in "Berghaus Munro ROC side pouch"

I see a Camo set at the moment. Too pricey for me. I stick to around £15 a pair.

Endicotts have them in red and teal:

My name is Martin and I'm a pouchaholic......

Still on the hunt for matching side pockets for the light blue Munro.

I missed out on a set 3 months ago and I am still kicking myself.

 

[sunndog]

i'v had a single green side pouch for years, not seen another one yet lol

Awesome pack, had mine for years. Had to repair it a little, the bottom stitching split. but with a tactically positioned patch, glue and military grade stitching, its back up and running hard. Used it extensively. Got it from a car boot (from clearly an ex-military guy) for the bargain price of £3!! Been through at least one tour of Irag. How would I Know?? In the frame pocket was a copy of the Operation Telemark (marked Top Secret, LOL) guide and Iraqi translations, plus the thing was full of sand.....

My first and Only Munro is 22 years old in December

 

[MikeLA]

My Munro was 26 and yellow before retirement. One of the best I owned, now using a similar version by HM SUPPLIES called a Ronum

 

[MartinK9]

The hunt goes on:

The light blue/turquoise set evade me still.

 

[MartinK9]

It only took 20 months, but search complete:

Now, what to do with other sets?

I have a ronum. Heavily modified to my own specs. Brilliant.
