I am wondering if anyone could comment on the use of this pack to haul a 3-5 pound tripod on the back (like the shovel in the video), and also be able to carry my DLSR camera body, and two or three lenses, plus my snacks, first aid, etc...<br /><br />Most camera packs are not intended for backcountry use, including my current Tamrac, which has fabulous features, but not rugged enough and lacks moderate protection from the elements. I greatly appreciate your opinions and observations regarding the ability of this pack to cross-over for a photographer !! ~ jeff question_134696 Mon, 26 Oct 2009 21:10:26 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/DAK0768/DAKINE-Pro-2-Backpack-1600cu-in.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_134695#question_134695 DAKINE Pro 2 Backpack - 1600cu in<br /><br />any splitboarders with this pack? how do you strap on your poles for the ride down? question_134695 Mon, 26 Oct 2009 20:59:30 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Ortovox-Free-Rider-26-Plus-Pack-1587cu-in/ORT0048M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_134329#question_134329 Ortovox Free Rider 26 Plus Pack - 1587cu in<br /><br />how does this bag carry the board? horizontally or vertically and is there the capability of a shovel compartment question_134329 Sat, 24 Oct 2009 16:07:03 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/DAKINE-Pro-2-Backpack-1600cu-in/DAK0573M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_134153#question_134153 DAKINE Pro 2 Backpack - 1600cu in<br /><br />I have this pack, I&#39;m just not sure on how to attach the shovel to it.

I had a heck of a time with the water in my camelbak freezing because the pack was not well protected from the cold. Also, compared to the last model, is there an easier way to threat the line through the shoulder? I had to cut into the nylon beneath the zipper to feed it out. question_133409 Tue, 20 Oct 2009 00:24:06 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/BLD0474/Black-Diamond-Covert-with-Avalung-Winter-Pack-1343-1953cu-in.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_133118#question_133118 Black Diamond Covert with Avalung Winter Pack - 1343-1953cu in<br /><br />how tall do you have to be to fit a md/lg question_133118 Sun, 18 Oct 2009 23:56:04 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/outdoorgear/Ortovox-Free-Rider-26-Plus-Pack-1587cu-in/ORT0048M.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_132970#question_132970 Ortovox Free Rider 26 Plus Pack - 1587cu in<br /><br />Sounds like the ski straps on this pack are limited to the size of ski they can hold...up to what width ski can this pack carry???<br />Also, according to ortovox website...there are two sizing options for the Free Rider 26.
