A harness is provided for transporting an injured, incapacitated or disabled individual. The harness is designed to enable a single user to transport a person on their back, thereby freeing up the hands of the user while evenly distributing the weight of the person being carried. The device comprises panel having a proximal section, a mid-section, and a distal end. The panel includes first and second pairs of interconnecting straps. The first pair of interconnecting straps is located along the vertical plane of the proximal and distal ends of the harness, whereby the distal end of the panel is capable of folding upward and being connected to the straps of the distal end, thereby securing an individual therein. The proximal end also comprises a second pair of securement straps, whereby the second pair of straps wraps horizontally around the individual to further secure them within the harness.
