I have a HMG Southwest and I'm wondering what these webbing loop/buckle things are. Has anyone come up with a good idea for putting them to use? I've put shock cord in an 'X' pattern through them and it seems to work ok, but is there a specific purpose for them?hmgpackloops

Here's just about the only pic I could find of someone putting these to use:expe1

Note in the description/features: "Four exterior triglide buckles for optional pack accessory straps"

They are attachment points for accessory straps to mount stuff on the front of the pack, like snow shoes, pack raft, misbehaving children, etc :)

Thanks, I must have never seen those accessory straps on the HMG site.

It's the exact same strap used on the Summit pack as a removable hip-belt too.
