This is an impressive bag. High quality materials and well laid out pockets. It has cool features like goggle and helmet storage. Perfect for backcountry ski adventures and good for a light travel bag.

Best Touring Pack in it's Class

I could go on and on, but I will try to keep this short and sweet. It has back entry, can carry your skis (or splity) in any configuration you want, and it reminds me of a bag from Harry Potter that is magically bottomless. Coming from a similarly sized airbag pack I am still amazed how my room there seems to be, and how many pockets there are for organization. You could get something slightly lighter, but I have found that you quickly lose structure and organization. I would take a lil heavier pack that is easy to use in a rescue scenario when lives are at stake and time is critical

Great backpack. Great Fit.

A very sturdy and well designed backpack for multiple use. Fits and feels really good on the back, enough storage space for day (ski)trips and a lot of adjustabilites for a perfect fit and support.Would be a good idea to add a small user manual, because some features, loops and straps are not always obvious what they are for. And finding reliable information and pictures is difficult.

High quality and very functional

Perfect for alpine snowshoeing and skitouring. Very practical and comfortable.Fits all your personal gear and avalanche safety equipment.

Super product in manufacturing and the way it's been thought out. Used it for a day touring, easy mounting of the skis on the back pack and very spacious. Solid build and comfortable throughout. Highly recommend it

Outperforms all of my other touring bags

I don't usually leave reviews but this bag is worth talking about. There are a bunch of features that really make this bag better than most ski touring bags.This bag features both a back access zip panel so you can load / pack the whole bag easily and a top access zipper to access the same main compartment. Back panel bags are great for your initial pack of the day where you can place everything neatly in the bag. However as the day goes on you use different things from your bag and sometime opening the whole back panel is pretty annoying, especially when trying to stuff a large puffy in and then zip it up. This usually ends in zipping the puffy or things shifting because you need to compress and zip at the same time. Thankfully this bag also has a top zipper to ... MoreI don't usually leave reviews but this bag is worth talking about.

This means you can stuff things and access items without spilling everything out of the back panel while on a steep pitch. Most ski bags only have the back access panel or the top zip, having both makes this bag far more useful in the backcountry.All of the webbing ski carry straps on the side have a locking feature so the weight of the skis being carried on the bag doesn't slowly loosen them over the course of your climb. This is a simple yet amazing feature.Lastly, the organization en ergonomics of the bag are well thought out. Small pockets, lined compartments, extra pockets in normal dead spaces in other bags, easy helmet sling attachment points, load lifter straps that work, I could go on.I've used bags by Arc'teryx, Black Diamond, Dakine, The North Face, and Patagonia. This one has the best features from each of those bags in one neat package. This bag is legit.

Quality pack

great so far! used touring a handful of times, bootpack with no issues. good volume but synches down pretty compact when not using full volume. great weight distribution between shoulders and hips. logical pockets.

Size is Great - functionality comes in second

This bag has room for it all. A designated area for safety gear - shovel and probe, outermost zipper pocket for goggles (or to protect sandwiches) external straps to hold all of the things. My ONLY wish - external water bottle pocket. While normally your water would probably freeze in most circumstances, most bottles are not insulated enough to be help externally. There is a place for internal bladder, but I find even the insulation on the hose freezes prior to my water bottle. More internal zipper pockets in the larger sections would have been helpful as well.

Tough bag

Tough bag with loads of utility. Very comfy. Only thing that’s missing is a bottle holder for easy access to/transportation of fluids (i.e., when not using a bladder pack). Mostly happy customer ;)

use for airtravel

With a couple packing cubes you can organize it very well and maximize all the pockets, plenty of room and you can comfortably distribute weight while walkinga round in airport. for day hike i use a 15 litter backpack, this one i woudld use for a 2-5 day trekking.
