The picture reminds me of the difference between horse packing and backpacking. I usually backpack, carrying wisps of tents, sleeping bags, and other ultralight equipment that would have been unimaginable when this photo was taken. But I’ve been on some horse trips, and the horsemen typically bring huge canvas tents, large crates of goods, and even a folding woodstove with a tall stovepipe. The four men in this picture are clearly horsepackers.
