Secret agents have them, and so do skiers.
In order to be ready for early powder calls and ski touring days I always keep my bag ready to roll, in part because I am horrible morning person. It is essential to be prepared, warm, and safe when navigating constantly shifting mountain whether. Having my bag organized allows me to insure I have all the parts and pieces when I need them.
Getting my kit together and learning to pack effectively has allowed me to get out more and stay longer in the mountains I love.
