packboard
Load-hauling back frame
A packboard is a rigid frame, typically made of wood or lightweight metal, worn on the back for carrying heavy loads.
Unlike a backpack with sewn compartments, a packboard has an open frame to which gear is lashed or strapped: He secured the elk quarters to his packboard.
Common in hunting, hiking, and military use where loads are bulky or irregular.
