A compact, light weight, backpackable winch and power source (10), including a cable quick release connector (120). The power train (20, 22) and cable retrieval mechanism (16) are mounted on one side of a backpack frame (12) and straps (84) enabling the mechanisms to be carried like a backpack are mounted on the frame (12) together with folding legs (92) that assist in supporting the assembly during operation. A cable (14) is wound onto the winch spool (16) by a level wind mechanism (18). The spool and level wind mechanism are powered by a hydraulic motor (24). The hydraulic motor (24) is powered by a compact gasoline engine (28). The quick release utilizes pincers (122) attached to the cable end and a shroud (142) that holds the pincers closed or permit them to open and release the load attached to the chain link (132) or loop. |
