Is it still comfortable to wear with a pack and beacon already strapped on you?

I've worn mine in both 1/2 hour sidecountry treks, and 4+ hour long tours. With both lighter packs and heavier fully stuffed packs. It was never irritating, annoying, or painful. It was just there, and I didn't really notice it. It is no less comfortable then wearing a pack anyway. So if you're used to having a pack on you anyway, it's a non-issue.

its getting to be alot of stuff i would get a pack with one built in. I dont really know if these are really worth the money. Sure they work but as you get caught in an avalanch you have to get this in your mouth and keep it in there the whole time...good luck...
