It seems like a good quality pack and has some essential features for a backcountry pack. Especially the external pocket for shovel, probe and other on the fly gear. The hipbelt is great by the way and has two small attachment points which I guess is for creating gear loops with 6 mm rope. pretty ingenius. Would work very well as an allround pack for mountaineering. the insulated shoulder strap for bladder hose look very well done and the pack seems more sturdy than most - yet lightweight. It will take a lot of abuse for sure. Only cons is that it's a pretty tall pack, I'm 6"4 (mostly legs though but still) and the back above the shoulder straps seems a little too high. wonder if it will conflict with my helmet while skiing when I'm leaning forward tilting my head back. Most ski packs are low on the back to avoid such situations. Could have created a helmet 'groove' in the top as many other packs have. Otherwise the pocket where the helmet cover is, is only protected by velcro and it opens upwards so that rain can rinse straight through the velcro. pretty stupid as it is not designed as a 'wet gear pocket' with rinsing holes at the bottom. Also the protection of the main compartment has only one drawcord, not the usual additional 'extension body' with extra drawcord. This makes it less complicated (faster) to access the compartment but also makes it easier for snow or rain to enter the compartment if it's blowing a bit (which it usually does). could therefore be extra useful with a waterproof liner or packsack. Otherwise great pack for ski touring and mountaineering

Lightweight designed pack to hold just enough gear and enough to make you happy traveling from destinations - The pack holds skis diagonally in two ways, does not offer A-Frame- The pack offers enough room for luggage but I personally do not see it has a ultimate backcountry pack, the waist belt is very simple (no pockets) medium size. I highly dislike how there is a lack of information about this pack though, on the black diamond website and in manuals that are provided, was not planned very well and seems to not be in any spot lights. However! The pack hauls and gets you where you need to go!

An excellent pack that I've used for backcountry skiing, mountaineering, and rock climbing. The packcloth is of excellent durability. Helmet feature is secure. Ice axe loops are adjustable to serve as diagonal ski carry. It would be nice to have the hipbelt pockets the new version offers. Shoulder strap padding is modest, but I have done multiday alpine routes with this pack and not been too uncomfortable. I'm 5'9 and have the 42 liter which has not been too big. I will probably also purchase the 32 liter in Avalung for short backcountry days or sidecountry use.
