[@michaelrapino4175]

I am curious about the weight comparison between the full ALICE pack in its original state vs. how much your new chair system weighs? I have been looking for a sturdy frame to replace the heavy original that is lightweight, so your answer would help me out a great deal. I can weigh the original here at my house. Do you mind taking the weight of your "chair pack" with no contents? Thanks!

[@WayPointSurvival]

The weight of the chair is 4 lbs, 7 oz, whereas the original Alice frame weighs 3.8 lbs. Sorry it took me a while to get back to you. Thank you for the question!

[@michiganexplorer7945]

Very impressive! I have a couple alice packs with no frames. This is a great option!

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thank you!

[@davekirby7790]

when I use to backpack I had a way of carrying my chairs. I had a neat system of strapping on the back and then loading up the supplies. it was called wifey. she carried the chairs ..ha ha great video. now that I am old...I just load them up in the back of the trailer and head off to the campground for the week. thats how I do my camping now...in a trailer....A campground that has flushable toilets for the wife and hot showers again for the wife....our trailer has all of those but she wont let me use them.. only at night..its rough getting old, but at I am still in the woods every so often...

[@WayPointSurvival]

It's good to be able to get out in the woods, even for just a little while...thanks for the story and for making me smile!

[@tomcatt1824]

U mean

[@melyssa8585]

Genius! I have a medium ALICE and I want to try this now. I would also add a handle to the top of the pack by itself in the metal loops made to attach the shoulders straps, just so it’s easier to hang the bag when you’re using the chair :)

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thank you, that's a great idea!

[@tedsamuels3203]

I'm going to try one of these backpacks 🎒 and chair 💺 . When, I'm backpacking, I like everything to have more than one use ? Cause, it's like doubling my gear without doubling my weight ?

THANKS JAMES ...The more technology, I sink in this brain 🧠 is the more , I'm gonna know about backpacking 🎒 bushcrafting and survival . And, your first lesson was self discipline ?

I agree, I don't know why someone hasn't come up with a commercially made backpack chair yet.

I am going to have to try that I have a medium and no frame I will need a belt but there cheap and easy to find I think looks cool

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thank you!

[@J0MBi]

Thanks for this. Just wanted to say that I used this hack to replace the frame on a large Alice ruck. I used a Gonex XL folding chair (www.amazon.com/Gonex-Lightweight-Portable-Backpacking-Traveling/dp/B086JSY138 ) worked really well once I figured out the right way to set up the belt. This chair fits really nicely into the parts of the ALICE pack that hold the frame, even better than the chair in this video in my opinion, and it's extremely light. Adds a little extra feature to a classic ruck.

[@WayPointSurvival]

Great! So glad you found something that worked for you!

[@J0MBi]

@@WayPointSurvival Thanks for the inspiration

[@WayPointSurvival]

You are welcome!

[@timothywilliams8907]

Pretty slick. Always thought it would be cool to have a chair like that when out camping, rucking, etc,. Figured I'd just use some paracord and lash one to the outside of my ALICE pack, but this is SO MUCH BETTER. 😎👍

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thanks so much and I'm glad you liked it!

[@GoTorino]

Luckily for anyone willing to try this, the bags are far more common than the frames, which typically get scrapped, as they are 100% aluminum. I personally would use half a frame drilled into the original pack frame, if it were the correct width. The seat folds out, and the pack remains under the chair. I've already added some tubing to expand my pack frame, but this is definitely food for thought.

[@WayPointSurvival]

Great, thanks for watching!

[@barrykelly2722]

High backed.....what? Ooh, SHOOTER stool. Shooter. Like the chest strap. My Alice doesn't have one. Next on list. McGeiver would be proud. Like that idea. Someone was thinking with their dipstick...Jimmy! (Castrol commercial) I thought you were doing a Macho Man Slim Jim commercial at the end there. Ohhhhhh yee-ah.

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thank you! The chest/sternum strap was an add-on. Definitely helpful. Also, thank you for watching and commenting!

[@JacquelineJaroffaith]

I have this Chair very good idea. I been trying to figure out how to carry it. Thank you ❤️

[@Willghanistan]

This is great. I would probably replace the side straps with updated buckles so as to make it even quicker to remove and put on.

[@WayPointSurvival]

Good idea. Thank you for watching.

[@MrTangent]

Fantastic, ingenious upgrade. Work with medium ALICE pack?

[@WayPointSurvival]

Yes. That's the one I used in the video.

[@SultanofSpey]

if your familiar wth the army field desk, those came with a small folding chair stool simsilar to that. One of those will sit neatly in the dead space between the frame and your back without the need of removing the pack from the frame. You'll need to rig a few renttion straps so it stay put and it's not as tall as that modification but it does just fine.

[@WayPointSurvival]

Excellent idea, thanks for sharing it!

It is nice to have a place to sit. However, if you need to “di-di” on the hurry you’d be screwed. I use the ALICE system too. But I rather leave it alone, to perform what it was made for. Just saying though.

[@mikes455]

Very cool Mod. I have two Alice packs I modded with a plastic military frame (works better for ppl 5’8 and under) and a plastic frame off an old “firefly” backpack that works better for me. Changed out a couple buckles and added Molly Belt and Shoulder straps. If you get an Alice Pack that has the internal pouch to hold a radio-it’s perfect for a water pouch.

Every day, when I get brain fried from working, I pull up a couple of your hacks to brighten my day. This one is a peach! This weekend I'm going to grub around the closet to see if I still have an old Alice pack, but even if I don't, I'm going to get one of these chairs to put in the back of the Suburban -- I'm getting too old to sit on the ground . . . . I may not be able to get up . . . . so this looks like a cool solution. Even without the Alice, I betcha I have more than one pack I can strap this chair to with a couple gear straps (Don't you just LOVE Molle webbing?). Cheers! And keep 'em coming!

[@MrBikboi]

The simplicity is genius. Gotta love the tried and true Alice pack. Was way before my time however I'm impatiently waiting on an amazing quality lc2 large Alice in the mail. I just love external frame packs, the versatility of the Alice is really incredible. Some might see it as ancient tech in today's ultralight high speed gear world. But man it's been combat tested for decades it's still relatively cheap however from what I've read prices are going up and it's a bit harder to come by, in Canada anyways. Tactical tailors malice packs are so nice cost is up there though. Great video.

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thank you, glad you like it!

[@LucasSanfelice]

Thank you for the video my friend. I have a few questions, if you can please let me know your thoughts: 1) do you feel any difference when carrying the backpack? I mean after 20, 30km or so? Or it feels just the same as with the normal frame? 2) do you think I could use a chair without the back and open it without having to remove the top from the alice? I mean, you have to release the lower straps to open the chair, but maybe keep part of the chair in the bag? I know it will limit some things, since you would have to keep the bag on the floor, I’m just thinking for a tactical situation where you might have to flee in a hurry. 3) the sternum strap is sewn into the shoulder straps or did you just pass it through those metal loops? Thanks again for the video!

[@WayPointSurvival]

How it carries is up to the person and your body type. It feels ok to me but the top bar can sometimes rub a little if it isn't adjusted right etc. You could use the chair and leave it partially attached if you wished and the sternum strap isn't sewn on, it slides up and down for adjustment. Thank you for watching and for your questions!

[@dfpytwa]

Pretty awesome. I really don't backpack anymore since I've gotten older and typically just take my big folding chair with arm rests and dual beer can holders while truck camping. I have had an old school alice pack since I got out of the Marines in the 80's. If I end up in bugout situation I might try to modify it. When I was a kid and used to go hunting and fishing with my grandad he made me a deer hide apron that he sewed the top over on and cut notches in it so it aligned with typical blue jeans belt loops. I could put that on my belt and wear it backwards so anywhere I wanted to sit on the ground it would keep my pants and butt dry and clean. Later I noticed that Les Stroud was doing something similar on his survival shows. I still had it until a couple of years ago even though I've been way too big for it since I was 16 and I gave it to my neighbor's kid who likes to go hunting and fishing with him. It still fits modern kids pants belt loops. When I was in the Marines and out on field exorcises I used to take the outer cardboard cover for C ration cases and later MRE cases and make a half assed chair out of them That outer case is open on opposite ends and made out of heavy duty cardboard. I would open it up and fold the long sides out ward in the middle to make a crease in the middle of the long sides, cut downward on each crease with my knife a couple inches then fold the carboard edges inward making four acute triangles for a seat. I could open it up a bit and throw a folded field jacket or any equivalent over it and have a comfy stool to sit on. Also if I needed to take a dump I could remove the field jacket, dig a hole, put the stool over it, sit on the folded cardboard triangles for comfort and take a nice sit down crap in the field. Way better than trying to squat anyway and they were strong enough to support my weight at the time which was around 190lbs. Fun stuff. I also like your version of an alcohol Arizona penny stove. Did you make that or is it store bought?

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thanks! I like your ingenuity. I did make the alcohol Penny stove back in about 2005. I actually made quite a number of them and tried to sell them for a while.

[@THENEWWRANGLER]

I love this mod and want to do it for hunting ( bow/ black powder/regular gun season plus hiking and Bush craft and camping ) but can not find the chair I do have a precursor to the Alice pack minus the upper sleeve but I think I can make and add one on along with the bottom tie out straps from a ww2 haver sack that I need to alter. Can you give me any ideas or if they are even made anymore? Also the shoulder straps are permanently attached to the pack the pack is also made from heavey canvases. Any ideas?

[@hammerhound168]

Does the lower bar on chair rub against your back, How wood it do for longterm use like walking to A.T. . Very inteesting hack.

[@WayPointSurvival]

It might rub against your back depending on the length of your torso. However, a little extra padding could be added with no problem to alleviate that. As far as long-term travel on the Appalachian Trail, I'm sure it would work, but you would definitely want to do some long test hikes before launching out.

It's actually fairly comfortable. Worst case scenario you would just pick up another slip-on pad that velcros over top of it to add more comfort if it would bother you on a long trip.

[@thaddeusmikolajczyk9055]

Great idea, I have a medium Alice pack and frame. Have you tried this chair on the medium pack? I would suspect that it would work. I have added a Molle system hip belt on my pack which gives me more padding and comfort. Thanks for sharing I will give it a try.

[@WayPointSurvival]

I see no reason why it would not work on the medium frame.

[@jeromeknasinski3862]

Good job. Easier when you don't have to explain it all, eh?

[@WayPointSurvival]

Absolutely. Thank you for watching!

[@rtoguidver3651]

I never liked my Alice packs, but now ?????

[@WayPointSurvival]

Glad you liked it, and thanks for watching.

[@sdr22630]

I watched all the way to the end. How long have you been off your medication?🤔

[@WayPointSurvival]

Lol. Never been on any medication. Thanks for watching!

[@CM-fk8mu]

Oh the miles I carried one of those. If I was still in the army, I would see how long I could get away with this . lol.

[@WayPointSurvival]

Indeed. Thank you for watching.

[@noshame7472]

Great idea but the manufacture of the chair has discontinued the chair can you offer an alternative.

[@WayPointSurvival]

If you do a search on Amazon for a folding hunting chair you may find what you're looking for.

[@elgavilansegoviano8858]

Great idea thanks for sharing it with us!

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thank you so much for watching and commenting!

[@raymondbailey1970]

i like this idea thats cool i suppose you could put your leggings in the pouch for a bit of comfort on your back.

[@WayPointSurvival]

Yes, you could. Thanks for watching.

[@caseywallace2240]

Doesn't look very comfortable. But i guess thats the nature of the beast.

[@WayPointSurvival]

It's not bad at all. Thank you for watching.

[@lurkndog]

Does this work with the Molle straps and belt? You might as well do the Hellcat mod at the same time, and just buy the ALICE pack.

[@WayPointSurvival]

I'm not sure if it works with the other system or not. Thank you for watching and for your question. Sorry I can't help you out on that.

[@johnr.1749]

Good question

[@mikek.3965]

Wonderful idea young man. I wanted to fabricate something like that but you have made it so much more easier for this old hiker. My knees will thank you when I set up a day hike and won't have to kneel to tend to my camp cooking. Thx!

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thank you so much! So glad you enjoyed it and found it useful!

[@mikek.3965]

@@WayPointSurvival I wonder if this would work with a medium sized ALICE pack? Ths!

[@WayPointSurvival]

Yes, that is the size Alice pack that I used for the video.

[@Cadiangrunt99]

As someone looking into a Alice pack this was a very cool thing to find out.

[@WayPointSurvival]

Glad you liked it!

[@jasonjackson4689]

Does it work to replace the LC1 black Rothco Alice pack frame? I hope it does even though the Rothco pack is smaller than and average Alice pack.

[@WayPointSurvival]

I'm not sure about that. I just know that it works on my standard Alice packs.

[@jasonjackson4689]

Thank you anyways. I love your videos. If anything were to happen your survival odds are high. More people need to be prepared for what life throws our way but unfortunately most do not have that kind of mindset.

[@Dragonmad1963]

What is the drink your having? and where do you get them please?

[@WayPointSurvival]

I think in this video it was spiced apple cider. You can get it either online or at a local grocery store.

[@a.wilson1979]

Uaw ! That's a genius idea

[@glennpurchase807]

Thanks for the idea. I have the chair already. Another great idea.

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thankyou, glad you liked it!

[@davebarr5437]

Unfortunately this chair is no longer available.

[@WayPointSurvival]

As far as I know they are. Took me about 30 seconds on Amazon. www.amazon.com/Allen-Camouflage-Folding-Hunting-Storage/dp/B07MQ6RTXW/ref=sr_1_2?dchild=1&keywords=folding+hunting+chair&qid=1603710003&sr=8-2

[@robertmiller8578]

That is a fantastic idea. Will it work for the medium size also?

[@WayPointSurvival]

I believe so.

[@creephead762]

I wonder if this would work with some other external frame packs

[@WayPointSurvival]

I'm not sure, it would depend on its overall construction.

[@tomaslepp]

I want to try this with my LK35.

[@javierrodriguez2863]

Another great idea! You should patent all your ideas!

[@WayPointSurvival]

Thank you so much!

[@johnthomas5806]

This will fill that chair I have needed while camping...

[@WayPointSurvival]

Great, thanks for watching!

[@rcash3625]

Nice vid and mod...much appreciated. Took a while to get to the meat and taters tho. Anyone else just wants the mod he gets to the nitty-gritty about 6:15 .. No offense my man but I like to watch camping videos for camping and something like a mod video getting straight to the mod. Idk about anyone else, but I didn't click the vid to watch you lounge and drink coffee for 6 minutes.... not trying to be rude. just some food for thought. a little constructive criticism
