    For longer walks over uneven terrain...I could imagine the golf cart/photo-backpacks pictured above with an attachable/detachable, lightweight "rickshaw" frame.

    I was out photographing at the beach today with my 4x5 kit. My wife and I were taking a break at a picnic table.

    A woman stopped by and said that was the best use of a golf cart that she had ever seen.

    There ought to be a commercially viable niche market for a parts kit or shop modified cart much like those. Some of these carts themselves retail for under $40 .

    In another thread here a year os so ago, it was noted that such a cart cant be used in Federal Wilderness areas. . . .but a travois can. Nothing that rolls I guess.

    There are only three types of mounting flanges; too big, too small and wrong thread!

    Yes, exactly!

    She also commented that a round of golf was a good way to ruin a long walk!

    I looked at those on ebay, looks nothing like the sherpa carts for hiking with cameras. They had bike size wheels and some could be collapsed a bit for narrow trails.
