I am looking for a day and a half pack that will work well when I ski into huts with a sleeping bag and 4 days worth of food. Has someone experimented with attaching skis and stuffing a shovel or probe into this pack? I have the Gregory Targhee in a size small for day skiing and love it, but I need something a bit bigger for the over nighters.

Jimmy, It's not designed as a ski-specific pack, but you can attach skis to the outside compression straps and the shovel blade/handle/probe can go into the space between the outer pocket and the main pack body. One of Gregory's reps used this on a week-long ski tour in the Canadian Rockies.
