Second iteration of this pack. Wishing this one was staying at home with me but I guess I’ll just have to make another.

30-40L with Rolltop <2lbs.
Ultra 200
Venom Grid from RBTR
Vislon zips
Ice axe carry
Diagonal and A-frame carry options
Removable Evazote foam insert
Removable hip belt
Removable Y-strap helmet carry / top strap (nice if you want to use as a day pack in the summer)

Let me know what you think! I got inspired to make these because I liked the Raide pack I got a couple of seasons ago but honestly felt like there was WAY too much going on. I simplified to exactly what’s needed in the backcountry and was very pleased with my V1 this past season.

First attempt at a super high volume bag (and 3rd pack total). So far, I’ve gotten this pack out on three separate overnight packraft / backpacking trips fully loaded and it’s held! A few minor tweaks I made to a V2 I just made for a buddy that I’ll post soon.

- 95L
- challenge ultra 400
- aluminum stays 2x
- hdpe frame sheet glued to EVA foam
- 1/2” Evazote foam hip belt
- 3/8” Evazote foam shoulder straps
- Fidlock hip belt buckle

~3.5 lbs. with frame sheet and stays

Cheers,
