The Mile Marker — Stay Mobile. Stay Deadly.

The Mile Marker is built for hunters who measure their season in miles, not stands. Designed with the same rock-solid construction as every Backwoods Mobile Gear pack, it’s a compact, purpose-driven companion that rides quietly, carries smart, and disappears when you draw.

Constructed from rugged materials and reinforced with the same heavy-duty stitching Backwoods is known for, the Mile Marker shrugs off briars, bark, and bad weather. A top-load main compartment gives you fast access to layers and essentials, while silent-entry side pockets keep small gear organized without zippers announcing your arrival.

This pack is engineered specifically for mobile treestand hunters. Using aluminum G-hooks, it attaches fast and secure to the front of your hang-on stand so your gear is ready the second your boots leave the pavement. On the hike in, comfortable mesh shoulder straps with non-slip liners and Cordura-reinforced load points keep the pack riding tight through climbs, crawls, and creek crossings.

Hydration-ready and built for constant motion, the Mile Marker adds capability without adding bulk—letting you focus on the sign ahead instead of the gear on your back.
