Fits and Protects

By Scott Pendleton Ranked #7 - Ice Climbing July 31, 2009

This bag fits my sabretooths just fine, even with the long center bar. Grivels have that accordion thing which makes them less compact, but BD crampons are great for this. It protects other gear nicely and the daisy chain is great for tying it on outside of the pack, which is where I like to carry my crampons. Drainage is fine, though I still store my crampons out of the bag for drying.

Note: You need to put your crampons point-to-point for this (or nearly any) bag to work well. Points will obviously go through the mesh and can go through the walls with a little effort. That's not a drawback of this bag, that's just a consequence of not using a metal box to store your crampons.
