The pack test is a standard test of strength, endurance and aerobic capacity.
Wildland firefighters must qualify annually in a fitness test that involves carrying a calibrated backpack a calibrated distance in a limited time.
For example, under current US guidelines, a firefighter expected to participate in arduous workload must carry a 45-pound pack 3 miles in under 45 minutes. Moderate or light workload would require a "field test" or "walk test".
Smokejumpers, some of the most challenging work in firefighting, are often required to demonstrate they can carry a 110-pound pack 3 miles in 90 minutes, to simulate a "pack out" after an ordinary fire.
