I'm also in the market for a tunnel bag. I've been looking at the Polaris bags that have the shovel compartment. Does the skinz bag have a spot for the shovel and handle on it??? I'm lookin for one that will carry a shovel on the sled that is easy to get to.
I also thought this would be a good plan, but then I worry about if I lose my sled in the mountains--it gets away from me-- and I am unable to get out of mountains, I would want my shovel/saw with me. I now always wear my shovel on my backpack. I would hope this would never happen, but it is better to be safe than sorry. I also carry food on both my sled and my pack for the same reason. If I do need to spend the night on the mountain, and I don't have access to my sled I want to have what I need.
Just a thought--take it for what it is worth.
Not good. I want a shovel on my tunnel so it's easy to get to when I need it in a stuck or etc. So this is why I'm lookin for a tunnel bag that will carry a shovel.......I will be carrying 2!!!!!!!!!
Like I said above, I carry one on my ABS pack and I'm lookin for a pack for my tunnel. Thats my favorite one I've looked at so far! Now I need to save the $$$$$$. Wowzers!Gals, this will be the LAST tunnel bag you'll need and add the Carry All to your bars and you're set. The only answer I don't have for you is what to do about having a shovel if you get separated from your sled. I guess you can still wear a backpack it'll just be much lighter. Yes, it's not a cheap bag BUT, you're get more then an open space to store stuff. Pockets, hold down straps, bottle holders make it the ultimate organized tunnel bag. Those of you thinking about doing this I'll throw in a Summer Sucks Camelbak bottle with your order. Just mention Snowest Camelbak Offer when checking out and it's yours FREE. If you have any questions feel free to fire away.
