For anyone that spends 5+ days in cold mountain conditions, what sort of pack do you use and how do you pack?
I have a Mountain Hardware Direttissima and Gregory Shasta . Even with my Gregory bag it's tough to fit everything I need:
North Face Mountain 25
REI Kilo Expedition -20 bag
Mess kit/stove
Food
Crampons
Axe
Ground cover
Socks/underwear
Sleeping pad
2nd pair of lighter boots
Also what's the weight you can ...
