Question for those who backpack and have an Insulin Pump.

 

Looking for info and feedback on Backpacking with an Insulin Pump. I am
considering going to a pump to manage my diabetes

Has anyone out there gone to Philmont with a pump or just backpacked with
one. Any pointers or advice. Does the catheter or the pump

Interfere with the hip belt on your backpack etc. Does the backpack and hip
belt interfere with the pump.
