I figured out everything except the little yellow pouch on the strap. I'm going to take a guess that it's for extra batteries. Am I missing something?

Comparing the stash & stash rider packs, which one do you feel is the superior pack to use with skis? I have heard the stash system holds skis well and is easy getting them on and off the pack. Are skis stable on the stash pack? Are there any other reasons why the stash might make a better ski pack? question_21720 Sun, 21 Sep 2008 16:07:14 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/store/BLD1109/Black-Diamond-QuickDraw-Tour-Probe-190.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_21690#question_21690 Black Diamond QuickDraw Tour Probe 190<br /><br />How do I decide if I need the 190 or the 265?d question_21690 Sun, 21 Sep 2008 09:58:30 GMT http://www.backcountry.com/store/BLD0381/Black-Diamond-Outlaw-Avalung-Pack-1939cu-in.html?CMP_ID=QRSS_21652#question_21652 Black Diamond Outlaw Avalung Pack - 1939cu in<br /><br />anyone know if the blue scuba tube thing is removable when i'm not in avalanch teritory?
