Does anyone have information on a basket I have heard called the Adirondack Back Pack. I have seen it shown in many photos as a Canoe pack. The three articles in the recent Wooden Boat magazine on making a Wood Canvass Canoe had one and it is also shown in the advertisement in the back of the same magazine for the Adirondack Guide Boats.

The Adirondack pack basket I believe was used primarily to carry beaver traps and other awkward shaped gear.Jack Ledley of Speculator N.Y (Adirondack Park) still makes them the old way.He also makes Adirondack style chairs and maple syrup. The area code for that region is 518.If I come across his phone no. I will post it.You should be able to get in from long distance info. Guinness drinkin,shillelagh toten sean
