I have a low profile camelback that i use occasionally with my gopro. it fits under my coat and no one knows. It carries:

My gopro
swifter gopole that collapses into three pieces
my tool
all my applicable gopro accessories
maybe some gum or mints
first aid

I try my very best to keep it bear minimum. No one wants 10+ extra pounds hanging off their back. It throws your mass off more than you think.

If its an extra cold day, ill throw some precautionaries in there(warmers, liners, etc)

As mentioned here, safety equipment is different.

I just can't understand why people ride with all that unnecessary shit.

If you do, fine. I just don't get it. That's all

It's not different in the sense that it is simply a tool used for a purpose. I use it for a purpose as I stated above. That's all.

I don't think we are really disagreeing about anything substantive.

Don't know if this is a general rule, but at Seymour you're supposed to take your backpack off when getting on a lift. Too much of a PITA. Fail.

Okay, I see the need to carry a pack when you go back country ,but most of your stuff will fit in ur pockets (cell phone, wallet, mp3).
I don't really have a problem with people wearing backpacks but I just find it silly when you see kids wearing them, and just eating snow on the bunny hills.
