Black Diamond Equipment Shadow Backpack - 45 Liter
 
Great Pack

Comments:
Great fit on the pack, 45l is perfect size for day climbs. I go back and forth on the functionality of the rope keeper strap. The attachment system for the sternum strap is also flimsy. I like the streamlining of the exterior and enjoy the crampon attachment point as well.

Comments:
This is all around the best Alpine Ski glove I've ever owned. I just bought 3 more pair even though my first pair, 3 years old, is still in great shape. I never want to be without this glove. It is NOT for skiing in very cold conditions (below 10 -15 degrees f.) but for all other conditions it is perfect. Nice tight fit, windproof, waterproof. I average almost 100 days skiing per season on Mt Hood in Oregon. We average more than 500 inches of snow per season and the wind is frequently in the 25MPH gusting to 40's with typical temps between 15 and 35 degrees. I have never gotten cold fingers. In fact I often take the gloves off while riding the lifts to avoid sweating them up and making them wet inside. The gloves have a great long gauntlet that is easy to tighten to keep powder out (and we get a LOT of powder - more than 50 days of knee deep or more pow this season). The gloves are light enough to also work well as a back country touring tele glove or XC glove in cold conditions or for the more casual tourer - but are far to warm for me to ski xc in since I stride or skate at race pace so wear only thin unlined gloves for that. The gloves also found duty this year for my outdoor snowblowing chores.

Have used this repeatedly to haul the family and mine gear on long, fast day hikes. Easy to get to gear in front vertical pocket. Sucks to your back while hiking/climbing, especially in canyons/cliffs trail of Zion,Yosemite,etc. Takes a beating well.......just wish it had a better organizer pocket in the front vert. pocket.
