Abstract: A framework for securing sundry items to a pack horse and for use as a chair or commode. A tubular framework includes a harness frame, a support frame and hinge plates which retain one to the other. A number of looped weldments anchor harness pieces which support the frame to a pack horse and anchor load securing straps and ropes. Multiple sleeve couplers project from the support frame and detachable legs mount to the sleeves and are retained with clips to provide a camp seat. A commode ring also mounts to the support frame to provide a portable toilet.

Abstract: An internally mounted, collapsible tent support framework including a plurality of length adjustable support sections. Inverted V-shaped end supports slip couple to a telescoping ridge pole assembly which includes a telescoping vertical T-support and over which a fabric tent is suspended. Set screws fasteners at the ridge and T-support assemblies determine exposure length and support camp accessories. Slip couplers including coaxial inner and outer sleeves define annular coupling cavities at the end supports.

Abstract: A sheet metal constructed modular pack kitchen including utility tables, sinks and cabinetry, along with an airtight wood stove and flue-mounted oven. When disassembled, the components self-store in nested relation within one another. The stove includes an airtight non-warping cook top, hollow double bottom, hinged hot water tank and supports a double-walled, damper-controlled oven and warming shelf. Slip-mounted, interlocking cook top and flue/oven sections provide a knock-down, airtight construction.
