    A couple years ago I posted a similar backpack. That one was a bit older as it has the black logo. This one has the red logo which makes it a bit later which would be 1960s or 1970s.
    The exciting feature here is that it has the aluminum frame. There are many backpacks but not so many of the frames. Apparently the frame makes it easier to carry. I think you can strap the sleeping bag and tent to it.
    To back up a bit this is the No 574 Yucca BSA backpack just like it says in the title. It is an official backpack. Has all sorts of nifty compartments and is made from a strong canvas.
    Many exciting items coming soon. Stay tuned to this website.
