Imagine that your pack is made up of three zones:

    *  Zone 1 – Put light items, like your sleeping bag, at the bottom.
    * Zone 2 – Pack heavy items, such as water, food, climbing gear, tent, etc. closest to your back. Use a sleeping pad or fleece as a buffer between sharp-cornered items and your spine.
    * Zone 3 – Place medium-weight or bulkier items toward the top or down the front of the pack.

Your objective is to avoid having a top-heavy pack, which will pull you backwards, or a bottom-heavy pack, which will make you feel like you are being dragged down. Packing heavier items close to your centre of gravity (middle of the back) will keep you balanced and make the load feel more natural.

Packing tips:

    * Distribute weight evenly between left and right sides.
    * Place frequently used items in an easy-to-access place, such as external pockets.
    * When hiking on easy terrain, pack heavy items a little higher for better posture.
    * On harder terrain, put heavy items lower down for better balance.
    * Stuff sacks allow you to quickly pack and unpack your gear and find what you need. The highly organized put each category of items (first aid, kitchen, etc.) in differently coloured bags. Try not to stuff the sacks full, as a little play makes them easier to squeeze into gaps.
    * Use your pots as hard metal stuff sacks to protect delicate items.
    * Pack your food above your fuel bottle, or place it on the outside.
    * Use your compression straps to bring the load closer to your body and keep everything in place.

我觉得背包外挂不好，东西容量刮掉（有一些先例），而且有碍平衡即累也不安全。包买大些，尽量把东西放里面。

Crampon Fit

It is critical that crampons fit boots perfectly. When you are purchasing crampons, bring your boots to the shop for a proper crampon fitting. If the crampons will be used on more than one pair of boots,check the fit on all pairs. Be sure to purchase crampons that match the intended usage.

Practice putting on the crampons while in the comfort of home. There will be plenty of opportunity to put them on under less-ideal conditions: by feel in dim light or in the limited illumination of a headlamp, fumbling with cold,numbed fingers


Tips For Fitting Crampons

* The crampon strap attachment posts at the front and rear should hug the boot snugly.  Test the fit by lifting the boot with the crampon.  The posts should hold to the boot without the use of straps.

* The welt on a boot is especially important with step-in bindings, which grip the boot at toe and heel.  Step-in bindings require well-defined grooves at the toe and heel on plastic and very stiff leather boots.

* The front crampon points should protrude 3/4 to 1 inch (2 to 2.5 centimeters) beyond the toe of the boot.

* If you will be wearing supergaiters with a rubber rand that fits around the rand and instep of the boot, be sure to wear the gaiters when fitting the crampons.

* In very cold conditions, most climbers wear overboots to help insulate their feet from the cold and snow.  As with supergaiteres, crampons must be fitted with the overboots on.  Make sure any attachment straps are long enough.
