In general the answer is those who want to enjoy the backcountry experience but can't or don't want to carry the loads that come with backpacking. A partial but more specific list follows.

• Those who, due to age or physical limitations, cannot tolerate the stress and exertion of carrying loads on their backs.
   

• Those whose careers or lifestyles preclude the conditioning necessary to carry loads on their backs.
   

• Those who could carry loads on their backs but want more enjoyment and less pain from their backcountry experiences.
   

• Those who did carry loads on their backs but no longer can and still long for the backcountry.
   

• Those parents who want their children to experience the natural world need to carry extra stuff. Wheelpackers can carry more clothes, food, etc. more easily than on the back.
   

• Those who want to take more (some wine, cheese, and a steak, for instance) to the campsite than a bare minimum.
   

• Those who use Wheelpacker to establish their base camp and do their bushwhacking as day trips with a fanny pack from there.
   

• Couples who want the solitude of the backcountry but include a weaker member. The stronger can use the Wheelpacker and the weaker a small rucksack. Together they can easily carry all they need.
   

• Those, including all of above, who are content to go into the backcountry using maintained, hazard-free trails that the user has familiarized himself or herself with prior to use.
   

Are you a member of one of the groups above? If so, you might want to consider a Wheelpacker. We don't represent it as something that is self- propelled or magic. It is simply an implement that will make a tough job easier, maybe even enjoyable.
