That is a Northwest Packgoat saddle with the mountain saddle straps in the back. I don't recognize the breast strapping but my saddle are a few years old.
Not sure what a "tree bar" and "fork" are. I call the top part a cross buck which is aluminum and the paddles which sit on the goats back are a composite. The hardware, welding, buckles, and design of the saddle in the picture are from NW Packgoat & Supply. There are no manufacture marks on these saddles designed by Rex Summerfield.
Good score buying it.
I personally can't use the mountain strap in the back. That top center buckle rubs a hole in the goats hide. It is plastic but sways back and forth over the spine as the goats walk.
