So I got a Heli-pro for xmas and being on the east coast I don't really need an avy shovel or probe. So I usually only have snacks, go pro, mounts, some extra layers and gloves. NS what do you put in your pack?

Greens, papers, gum. Cliff bar, banana, Apple. $4 dollars for a small fry if I don't make a sandwich. Face mask if i don't need it, extra inside gloves. Extra layer or layers I took off. I'm taking an avi class though so hopefully that changes a by the end of the season or by next season.

I don't carry mine all the time, but when I do I just move stuff from my pockets into it - clif bars, hand warmers, small water bottle, gopro and a chesty/pole mount, extra layers if ive taken any off. also carry a knee support thing in case it starts to hurt too much.

Mostly just gear. I bring a phone charger too cause my phone dies fast. I also bring an extra pair of gloves because that seems to be the thing people always forget.
