Large basket with webbing straps for carrying on a person's back. The basket is a rounded rectangle shape with one side concave. Khaki webbing is wrapped around the top of the basket and hung with two long straps that stretch from front to back around the bottom of the pack in order to be worn over a person's shoulders, like a backpack. The straps are adjustable at the front of the pack via metal buckles.
