A sack can be packed a hundred ways, this guy is simply sharing what works for him. Nothing actually needs to be anywhere specific. Thanks for sharing your packing habits.
That little "guide card" means Mr Mason has many years of rigorously proven experience, expertise, and current competence according to the UIAGM. Anyone can have an opinion, substantiated or otherwise.
i would have the harness and crevasse rescue gear already on... i wear a Rab vaporize alpine jkt... very breathable. but take a light breathable shell in case.of bad weather. also a Belay jkt... also good if someone gets injured and needs to stay put... and after being caught out at night and doing hours of abseiling or downclimbing etc in cham , i would recommend one person has a small gas cooker to melt.snow.to rehydrate ..
Climbing there is a walk in the park for this guides. We can easily run out 2L of water and they can climb an entire day with just an apple. Climbing machines !
Interesting how alpine gear differs from winter overnights. Seems it’s not really about comfort more about not dying on the way up and down! I guess every adventure has its challenges!
what size is that backpack? anyways, i don't understand why the helmet and cams cant go on the outside, thereby reducing the pack size a bit and saving a couple hundred grams that way. it isn't like there are any trees or whatever to snag on...and why not compress the down jacket? and man, for does that first aid kit appear voluminous! what really is in there, anyways?
Good mountain craft allways pack your gear inside your pack tidy and safe till it's needed. Watch all these videos and you'll learn from the experts. You shouldn't need to ask this if your experienced
I am experienced, and I believe that **weight should be the first priority** . People routinely firmly attach helmets, ropes, tent poles, crampons, sleeping pads, climbing hardware, and other stuff to the outside of their packs in the mountains. Are you telling me you pack all that stuff inside your pack? Even rope, crampons, tent poles, and sleeping pad? Your pack must become just huge... a pack big enough to accommodate all that stuff is adding 2-3 pounds to your load. No thanks.
You have to take the gondola for most climbing in Chamonix, carrying things outside the pack bothers people riding the gondola, since it is too crowded.
@@albinomattosfilho9394 on the midi you put your bag on the floor, to avoid stabbing people with axes or ice screws. Generally I carry my helmet, sleeping pad, and rope on the outside of my pack. sometimes crampons

Professional, practical, very useful. Well done.
So would you pack your avy gear, like shovel and probe for glacier?
Mountaineers don't pack this in the alps because most outings take please in summer when avalanches is much less of a concern than crevasses or a fall

I don't fear a lot of things, but a man with bigger forearms than bicep is one of those things.

Your life may depend on the gear you have with you, it is safer inside the pack when you aren't using or wearing it.

Medical kit at the bottom...😳???
yes because you don`t need it at 95% of your climbs.
