Sometimes I use a Blackhawk Check-Six leather holster to put at the 5 o'clock position. I like the angle of the pistol, and there's a lot of distance between the two holster loops, which distributes weight over a wider area. I pack with a hunting pack that has no "back" to it, but is like a really large fanny pack with shoulder straps. The pistol is accessible at all times.
A solid kydex holster with good distance between belt loops can also be a good choice. If exposed it's noiser in the brush, but if not exposed presents less friction against your clothing.
Holsters with closed or mostly closed muzzles are also desirable for me when the gun is on your backside. If you slip and fall or slide down a dirt embankment, you wont get your muzzle jammed full of dirt (or snow, and it happened to me one year).
