packless

Carrying no load

Packless means without a pack—either traveling without luggage or, for social animals like wolves or dogs, lacking a group.

A packless hiker carries nothing on their back.

A packless wolf roams alone, separated from others of its kind.

The word is uncommon but transparent in meaning.
