[pct-l] Public Announcement - New Backpack Harness

These might be helpful for those wonderful Trail Angels supplying water caches but I'm not sure I see any application for backpacking.  We're trying to reduce the weight on our shoulders, not increase it.  I fear these straps do the latter.  Non-impact is good, non-weight is much better.
