Great climbing, skiing, and hiking pack! - Ortovox Peak 45L Daypacks

This is an all-around great pack for anything in the outdoors. It's perfect for a long ski tour, alpine climbing, and even lightweight backpacking trips (and carries a packraft really well!). The crampon carry system is a great way to carry them on the outside, and it holds my ice tools well too. I guide the glaciers of Alaska all summer and use this pack every day, and it's successfully survived one season (and is ready for more). I like the zippered pockets that give me fast-access to avy or rain gear, and the quick cinch/open system up top is easy to operate with gloves on. The only change I'd make is to make the brain fully detachable - it can be a tight stretch when trying to carry a rope on top of a fully loaded pack, but otherwise, I've been VERY happy! I am a member of the Ortovox team and have been given this product to test and use.
