A collapsible durable outdoor adventure container is constructed of polymer sheeting having holes in flaps of the sheeting. The sheet is bendable and bent by a user to a selected tubular configuration to align through holes along a seam line in flaps of the sheet or sheeting assembly with cable tie clamping elements clamping said flaps together through the holes. A strap coupled to at least several of the clamping element running along the seam line acting as an outside wrapping and/or tensioning element to contain the clamped flaps and fully or partially contain the contents of the container providing a connection tensioning element between adjacent clamping elements as connected along the seam line of the flaps.

1. A collapsible durable outdoor adventure container comprising: a polymer sheet having at least two flaps and a pattern of through holes therein, wherein said through holes are positioned at prescribed locations and at intervals along a selected seam line for a frame of the container to be assembled by bending said flaps to a configuration wherein particular sets of complementarily matched through holes in said pattern are approximately coaxially aligned to form an aligned arrangement and secured in the aligned arrangement bya clamping element passing through each of the complementarily matched through holes causing the surfaces of the sheet flaps adjacent such complementarily matched through holes to be held in a clamped condition by each corresponding said clamping element;wherein a strap running generally along said selected seam line is positionable to engage and be fixed to at least several of each corresponding said clamping element to be coupled to said polymer sheet and provide structural support to the frame and distribute a lifting force applied to the strap along each corresponding said clamping element positioned along the selected seam line of the polymer sheet; wherein the clamping element comprises two or more individual cable ties each having a keeper, wherein each cable tie is individually tensioned to hold the corresponding through holes in alignment and in said clamped condition;wherein said strap is positioned to be held inside of a tension loop of said cable tie. 2. The collapsible durable outdoor adventure container as in claim 1, wherein the frame of the container to be assembled forms the shape of a pack such that the sheet is folded or bent so that said through holes align to provide a tubular shape closed at a bottom end. 3. The collapsible durable outdoor adventure container as in claim 2, wherein said strap is a rope held inside of a tension loop of said cable tie. 4. The collapsible durable outdoor adventure container as in claim 1, wherein said holes in said sheet flaps are spaced at least an inch apart and said through hole diameter is slightly larger than a width of a cable tie disposed to pass therethrough. 5. The collapsible durable outdoor adventure container as in claim 4, wherein said cable tie tension loop passes through a washer element on the inside of the container to be assembled. 6. The collapsible durable outdoor adventure container as in claim 4, wherein said cable tie tension loop passes through a washer element on the outside of the container to be assembled. 7. The collapsible durable outdoor adventure container as in claim 5, wherein said cable tie tension loop passes through a washer element on the outside of the container to be assembled. 8. The collapsible durable outdoor adventure container as in claim 3, wherein said cable tie tension loop connector containing said keeper is positioned outside an inner surface of the container to be assembled. 9. The collapsible durable outdoor adventure container as in claim 4, wherein said cable tie tension loop passes through a washer element on the outside of the container to be assembled. 10. The collapsible durable outdoor adventure container as in claim 1, wherein the frame of the container to be assembled forms the shape of a pack such that the sheet flaps are folded or bent so that said through holes align to provide a tubular shape closed at a bottom end, and a light fabric material inner pouch is configured to be supported within and coupled to said tubular shape closed at the bottom. 11. The collapsible durable outdoor adventure container as in claim 1, wherein the frame of the container to be assembled forming the shape of a pack is formed from at least two polymer sheet elements each having complementarily matched through holes that when aligned form a seam line along which connection points clamp adjacent surfaces of the sheet elements together such that the combination of two or more polymer sheets then form a sheet assembly that is folded or bent so that said through holes align to provide a tubular shape closed at a bottom end. 12. The collapsible durable outdoor adventure container as in claim 11, wherein the at least two polymer sheet elements have different thicknesses. 13. The collapsible durable outdoor adventure container as in claim 11, further comprising a light fabric material inner pouch configured to be supported within and coupled to said tubular shape closed at the bottom. 14. The collapsible durable outdoor adventure container as in claim 12, further comprising a light fabric material inner pouch configured to be supported within and coupled to said tubular shape closed at the bottom. 15. The collapsible durable outdoor adventure container as in claim 1, wherein said polymer sheet is a self reinforced composite. 16. The collapsible durable outdoor adventure container as in claim 1, wherein each said cable tie is rated for at least a 50 lb. continuous tensile load.
