Overview
Designed to mount on the front of a bino harness, this pouch keeps a phone accessible for hands-free navigation in the field. Pass-through openings allow charging cords to run to a battery pack in the front pocket of the bino harness, while built-in tweave gussets help hold the phone at a viewing angle and support Face ID use without removing it. A zippered front pocket keeps a Tyto within reach, and a slot pocket on the back panel secures a map and compass. It attaches to standard 1.5" PALS webbing spacing and includes HDPE in the back to help prevent sagging, with space to zip the hood away when not in use.
