    Default Patterns on Gossamergear's website ?

    I was looking around online at some backpack patterns, and a lot of them directed me to gossamergear's website, such as the G4 Ultralite backpack and Mark Henley's 1 oz Pack. The website doesn't seem to have them on the page anymore / they are taken down, and i cant seem to find them archived anywhere. Does anyhere know where i can get these files at?

    Thanks

    I think I have both the Henley and the G4 instructions saved somewhere. I'll have to check.

    They recently redid their web site. Maybe you can email them and ask if they still have the instructions. Seems like an oversight to leave them out since they have so much other stuff.
    Some knew me as Piper, others as just Diane.

    There used to be a yahoo group dedicated to the G4 complete with patterns, instructions, modifications, etc.

    Call Grant and ask him where it is. They're glad to help, and they will probably add it back to their web page, once they realize it's gone.

    The patterns are going to be coming back, just in the next phase of the website apparently. Good to know! Glen was nice enough to send me the G4 pattern they had on the website.

Good luck with your project! It seems like I saw a posting, but if not, the G4 Yahoo group can be helpful. Also, I recommend getting the full-scale patterns from Quest Outfitters.

    I used the full scale pattern from Quest Outfitters and it was very straight forward. Great pack done within a couple weeks of tinkering around in the evenings.
