Just wondering if anyone has heard of the Dixon Roller Pack. Made from sturdy aluminum frame with one rear wheel. You strap your load to it, making sure it is centered. What I found is easy to do next is lift up the front, lean it against a tree, turn your back to it and slip into the shoulder straps that are supplied and attach the waist belt which is also on the frame. Then you simply start walking and pull it behind you. The trail that I
hike on also allows mountain bikes so there is no restriction to my roller pack. Plus if you run out of trail it simply turns into a backpack. Here is the
website.

I don't suppose you'd be Bob Dixon would you? In any case I removed your link. You can not post a link until you have 10 posts. And if that is your site you are not allowed to post it in the body of a post. You can put it in your signature however.

I have seen them. Definitely an option for someone carrying a lot of weight.
Here are some pics. The pack looks good as well.

Not really a great off trail option, unless you are desert hiking.
