Gregory continues to innovate the backpack world with this innovative ski pack. The first winter backcountry-specific pack that integrated the board and ski carrying system directly into the pack suspension through a dual stay weight distribution design

Features Include: All Terrain Harness, Molded backpanel, Integrated ski carry system, All Terrain waistbelt with stash pocket and gear loop. Also comes complete with zippered top loading access, 3 way ski carry, front pocket easily accepts shovel blade, skins, and other backcountry necessities, continuously insulated tube sleeve runs from inner pack body thru shoulder harness to help prevent freezing, quick access avvy probe and shovel handle side pocket, high tenacity 630 denier nylon body fabric, Optional snowboard/snowshoe carry option, lockable, non-slip ski carry straps, and full drainage system
This pack is new to the market, but still has all the comfort and quality of a Gregory pack. My only complaint is that there is very limited room to carry a helmet. Since there is no external helmet holder, the helmet has to go in the pack, and with the top loading main pocket, this makes it very difficult to reach anything that might be on the bottom of the pack. The only other complaint is that the shovel handle kind of sticks up into the main compartment of the pack, which makes things a bit weird when messing with the front of the pack. I do like the top loader, the mini pocket, the insulator sleeve for the hydration resevoir, and the shovel area. Most of all, I really like the comfort of this pack.
