Pretty typical pack for the LEO to have on hand while they
run things from the com center. If they need to get into the
field they have most anything to draw from.
This would be called a 48 hour pack, with shelter, stove and
sleeping bag. A 24 hour pack would be lighter and expect the
searcher to be up and around the whole time.
The climbing gear adds quite a bit of weight, tho he did a great
job of minimizing that.
Hard to chase someone down on skis or snowshoes or run a few miles
on a trail to a known medical emergency with a 55 lb pack.
Didn't notice any grid ribbon,
For a cold weather pack I didn't see skis/skins or snowshoes, avi beacon, shovel, probe.
