Re: When wearing a pack, where do you put the stuff that usually goes on your belt?
x2 on the straps of the waist belt of the pack. I got a spare leatherman case that I leave on the stabilizer straps that run from the back of the waist belt to the pack where it attaches to the waist belt. I just take my leatherman off my belt and transfer it once I'm out of the truck. I also carry a Benchmade Griptilian folder in my pants pocket, along with a lighter, compass, TP and my licence and copies of ID. That way if some how I lose my pack, I still have enough to survive the night.
"The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause."
-Theodore Roosevelt France, 1910
