How does one attach crampons to the welded crampon patch?

Does this bag allow one to use a sleeping pad as the back support/cushion?

Thanks!

Hey Nick, I don't own the mission 75 but I do have an epic 45 and I believe the install is the same. Just thread the straps through from the additional fabric piece as shown in my picture in skiandrock's question above. As far as your inquiry regarding "back support", I can't picture what you are meaning but the suspension system is state of the art and would be most beneficial if left as is. Happy trails!

Hey, I actually was able to look at this pack. It comes with a strap that clips into the 4 D Rings. Looks very organized and should fit BD crampons well.

I had the same problem with my Speed 40 pack. I found a solution that works very, very well. I picked up a pair of Voile Straps and they work perfectly. A pair of the 15" provided a very secure attachment for my Sabretooths. Backcountry.com even sells them: http://www.backcountry.com/voile-ski-straps-9-through-25-inches-vol0083
