So I am looking to get into free sledding on the weekends but I am also in a group that will summit mount Adams in Oregon in a month, I was wondering if any of you have ever tried using this for purely getting down a mountain with a heavy (55 lb +) pack on?

I think I will get a Killer B even if I can't ride it screaming all the way down Mt. Adams

i have never tried this, but my guess would be that it would work fine with the pack, you just may need to lean forward more than usual to counter the weight on your back
