Re: Tying Stuff to Your Backpack
Packing a backpack efficiently and finding things in it quickly is a canonical use of Soldier skill, right? So, obviously "backpack stuff" is within the purview of Soldier skill.
Often in GURPS more than one skill can apply to a task. I think this is one of them.

Re: Tying Stuff to Your Backpack
Sure, it's basically Survival -4 (which is the default roll for any Survival from another Survival). But for this... I might call it -2?
Honestly, this really best fits Hiking and Professional Skill (that covers maintaining a packed kit, but only if that kit really does include a heavy pack). |

With that relatively generous and _very_ broad set of Defaults at -3 it's going to be difficult to make a non-specific but Defaults to all other land-based terrains look particularly good. If you just pick one terrain you'll get that one at full value and everything else at a -3. Everything at -2 is kind of "meh" but everything at -1 might be too good.
