    sorry about the messy stiff i was doing ten things when i typed this . they are for external water packs or a day pack . ospreys have the same idea and i learned that it was for either the day pack you can buy separately or a external water pack . i actually was at a store up in Damascus ( mro ) and was just talking and looking at stuff with jeff and we ran across the pack and he was showing me some accessories and that is how i found this out . have a good day ... peace a nd love my friends and hike safely . the further shuttle Appalachian ...

    i was checking out some articles on a white mountain bean back pack , which i believe that this is that bag , so , i found back packer mag and a ll bean sales video talking about the bag and i'm going to say that number 1 is for ice picks and other accessories . if there is two of them on each side try hooking the hard rubber pieces together and see if they connect . you can check the article i speak of out at backpacker magazine and llbean store and click on the bag .

    L.L. Bean contracts with a lot of manufacturers for their branded gear. Almost always those are reputable sources, because L.L. Bean wouldn't be able to afford their unlimited satisfaction guarantee otherwise. I have what I call my "L.L. Beanondale" touring bike, which was a Cannondale aluminum frame with mediocre components, but with the L.L. Bean logo. (I bought the bike to replace one that got the frame crunched when a driver made an illegal turn into me. Yay for quick reflexes that the bike got hit and I only smacked the pavement as I dove off. The components from the dead bike upgraded the L.L. Beanondale.) It's an excellent bike alongside my two with Cannondale branding.
