BCA Float 42

[~mikey b]

just got this today and I’m loading it up tonight to try it out



not much avalanche hazard in the Sierra right now but I’m going to haul this thing around and check it out



first impression is great - I like big packs and I cannot lie - this thing is big - I need a teaching/guiding airbag pack that I can carry every day with a big load of crap in it

super adjustable harness for different sized humans - as a larger human with a long torso it fits me well - not sure how well it would actually fit for a small human





outer pocket fits skins, shovel and probe - and I like the helmut carry thing



I really like the big pockets and gear loops on the waist belt



looks like it will carry skis and snowboards well - they even warn you to not use A-frame ski carry, as it interferes with the airbag



I gotta figure out the airbag…

I dislike the buckle and how the weight of the canister seems to ride really high in the pack.
I love the goggle pouch and the amount of shit I can stuff in it.
It's heavy

whats the recommended ski carry if not a-frame? strap them both to the back like a snowboard?

Thread bump: How do you like this pack? Does anyone have one that they want to sell me? I have the 32 but am running out of space for more gear-intensive terrain/trips.

I like it. It’s heavy but I like it. I haven’t needed it as much as I want the last couple seasons.
