ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a device for increasing the storage capability of a pack. The device comprises a frame, a plurality of adjustable straps connected to the frame for holding a plurality of articles, such as bedrolls, blankets, sleeping bags, tents, etc., and a plurality of straps and hooks for attaching the device to the pack. In a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the frame is formed by a number of fabric members sewn and stitched together so as to form a lightweight construction. Preferably, the members are stitched together so as to form pockets along the sides of the frame and an interior storage space across the top of the frame. One or more U-shaped members, preferably formed from a metallic material, may be inserted into the pockets and the storage space so as to rigidify the frame. When taken out of the pockets and the interior storage space, the U-shaped members may be used by a camper/hiker to hold pots or the like over a camp fire.
