Write your question here...Is the avalung only to be worn on the outside of clothes or can it be worn inside? I have my own backpack for my shovel, skins, probe, etc...How does the avalung sit on your body and how can you wear it so it doesn't interfere with my pack... I don't want to buy a new pack...

You can wear it just like in Doug picture below. I would highly, HIGHLY suggest never wearing it inside your clothes, as common sense would tell you that the CO2 which you are trying to get away from your face, would become trapped in your jacket, which in most cases vents upwards due to the neck being one of the only exit points, especially with a powder skirt done up. So the best idea is outside your jacket, where it can disperse away from you into the snow.
