I have an older external frame backpack that I bought used. Its brand label reads "High Adventure". I can't find any information on this company. It looks very much like a Jansport Scout, but Jansport claims that it is not one of their product lines. I am trying to get the specifications for the pack and some history on this brand.

Can anyone help?

I think the Boy Scouts may have had a line of packs made for them under that name a long time ago, i even think i used to have one.

This is the old BSA high adventure patch. I believe it dates back to the 70s and 80s but may have been available into the 90s.

Is this the emblem on the pack? If so, it could be any old boy scout's pack on which he may have sewn on a patch.

Hiya,
Did you give this pack a go?
I'm looking at a vintage pack of the same make...
How was it?

I'm wondering the same thing, just bought one at a rummage sale and it's missing a clip. Was hoping to contact the Manufacturer to buy a replacement.
Thx, C.Rivero

Chances are good that small parts were bought from a vendor. You should be able to find parts from a variety of sources. Got a picture or description of the missing clip?
