Rugged, versatile, go-to alpine pack - Ortovox Peak 32 S Backpack

Full disclosure, I’m on the ORTOVOX athlete team so they gifted me this pack to test. That said: I reach for this in a wide variety of conditions and alpine pursuits, and can’t recommend it enough. From ski tours to long days climbing ice, this pack has been my winter go-to last season, and has held up flawlessly. I’ve been amazed at how dry the contents of my pack consistently stay, and the fabric is burly without extra weight. The helmet attachment is a convenient bonus, as is the waistband pocket. The shorter length is a perfect fit for me as a 5’4” woman. Note: the straps are more orange than they look in my photo; the color combo is fun but not overly bright.
