Designed to carry a chainsaw, repair kit and fuel bottles
Made in Thunder Bay, Ontario, Canada
Taking the pack board concept one step further, the Ostrom Chainsaw Pack is designed specifically to carry a chainsaw, repair kit, lunch, and a couple of fuel bottles. A bonus for trail crews with no vehicle access.
Features
The chainsaw supported by a foam ledge, is lashed to the frame by a panel of cordura nylon, webbing straps and quick release buckles
Extra straps and buckles further secure the load
The panel that wraps around the saw has a large pocket with a buckle down lid
2 pockets with buckle down lids fit 1L fuel bottles
Materials and Construction
1000 Denier Cordura Plus
Vinyl lids on the various pockets
National Moulding buckles (toughest on the market)
EVA foam(high quality dense foam does not compress over time) and ether foam (soft and cushy) in shoulder straps
All stress points are sewn multiple times or bar-tacked
All seams and raw edges are bound so the fabric won't fray over time
Suspension System - Internal Frame
A rigid plastic framesheet / back panel with 2 parallel aluminum stays (a flat bar that is 1"wid e and 1/8" thick, that runs the length of the back panel) ("One size fits most" - To accommodate different back lengths, the stabilizer straps that extend from the shoulder straps to the top of the pack have two attachment points on the frame.)
Stays can be removed and bent to the shape of your back for a custom fit
S-shaped shoulder straps with adjustable chest strap (5 sizes); they are 3/4" thick, two layers with a dense EVA top layer that prevents the pack from digging into your shoulders.
Soft Padded Hip Belt (4 sizes) - 3/4"thick
Stabilizer straps on shoulder straps and hip belt provide adjustment and pull the load closer to your back and hips so the pack moves with you.
Fleece lined tump
Notes from the Field
"At the end of a long day working on the trails, it's nice to be able to load up the chainsaw, gas, and other ear and head for home. For 4 years we've tried everything, and nothing has come close to working as well as our Ostrom Chainsaw Pack. It impresses everyone who uses it." Mike Stoneman, formerly with Go with the River
