MR Sawtooth questions

[Kramer588]

I just got my sawtooth and had a few questions on the features of the pack. First off, why do the straps on the left side of the bag, that attach to the frame, have an extra square buckle that they go through?
The second questions is about hauling a load in the meat shelf. Are you suppose to move the straps that go up and over the top pocket and attach to the top of the frame? Those straps are removable and there are two small loops behind the flap that clips over the frame.

I'll attach a few pictures to show where i'm talking about.

The second picture is just showing the loops where the straps come installed on.

2nd picture I believe is for weapon or fishing rods straps....maybe even jackets or shells

I'm not sure myself, but, I'm thinking it stops from sliding out of place or to keep you from using that side for meat shelf....I guess it's to catch the meat from falling off while you're trying to strap them down.
My best guess.... I'm no SME

Here is another photo of where I moved the straps to, just to show what I was talking about. I was talking to a buddy about it and he said those loops may be a lid attachment point, which I never thought of

Yup, quick release from the frame.

Initially, it was a loop/part of the pack that you had to slip the frame after removing the load lifters...now you just unbuckle those....watch the video a few times and you'll get it.

Btw is that sack of Minn Wild Rice?

I think i figured out the loops in the back thing and the back originally came with grass seed in it, and i just filled it with corn for something to train with.
