DIY Backpack mount
« on: February 03, 2024, 09:13:54 AM »
My Grandfathers pack from the late 20s, early 30s from when he worked for the forest service.  A “clack” pack, what the original firefighters were deployed with.  Then my Dads pack.  The last thing I remember him packing out was his goat.  Shown here with my buck.   I was looking for a simple way to display him, no need for another deer head on the wall.  If I don’t like it or grow tired of it, I can change it up.
