Related Facts and Articles

The simplest form of "BACKPACK" is a cloth sack carried on one's back and secured with two straps that go over the shoulders and below the armpits. The shoulder is better suited for bearing heavy weights for long periods of time than the hand, so backpacks are often used for that purpose. Backpacks designed for backpacking are considerably more complex. Backpacking packs, often just called packs, come in two main models: internal-frame and external-frame. In addition to the two shoulder straps, modern packs always have a padded hip belt. The hip belt carries most of the pack's weight, because the pelvis is sturder than the structure of the shoulders; this also lowers the hiker's center of gravity. Packs generally have many pockets, and the main compartment may even have vertical sub-compartments. Almost all packs, especially external-frame models, allow bulky items to be strapped to the outside. Packs are typically about 3 feet (1 m) tall. - This article is licensed under the GNU Free Documentation License. It uses material from the Wikipedia article, Backpack.
