Strap your board onto the Backcountry Access Stash Rider Backpack and hike to your favorite out-of-bounds powder stash. This insulated winter hydration pack has just enough room for a day at the resort or in the backcountry. The hose and bite valve are neatly stashed inside the shoulder strap where Outlast insulation actually traps and stores your body heat, releasing it when the temperature drops. This high-tech insulation system ensures you're not sucking ice, even in brutally cold conditions. Storm-proof zippers ensure the contents of the Stash Rider stay dry and secure, and internal probe and shovel pockets keep everything easily accessible in case the worst case scenario turns into reality.

Bottom Line: The Backcountry Access Stash Rider holds all the ice-free water and gear you need for a day of resort or backcountry riding.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

I am looking to use this pack for doing some back country snowboarding. I am just wondering if there is enough room to strap snowshoes onto the back?

I've used this for about 3 years now. While the mouth valve did tear after my last trip and leaked water, backcountry.com guaranteed it so now I'm RMA'ing it for the red version (have the black version currently).

yeah, it fits.
i wouldn't strap the computer to the outside though. that's too creative. although, if you open the laptop, close the Velcro strap over the keyboard and fold it closed again, i bet it would fit!

Great pack

This is an excellent pack. Although advertised as a pack for snowboards, it works quite well to hold skis. The quick release straps make it easy to secure skis to the pack without removing gloves or mittens.

I found this quite useful during a trip to Aspen, CO, where carrying skis is necessary to go to Longshot and the Hanging Valley Wall in Snowmass as well as the Highlands bowl at Aspen Highlands.

The water reservoir works well in mildly cold conditions (20 degrees F and above) but does freeze in extreme cold conditions (below 20 degrees F) but short of putting vodka in the pack, I do not know of any other pack that would hold up in extreme cold.

So I tried this pack on at a local mountaineering store and it

So I tried this pack on at a local mountaineering store and it felt very "stiff." Namely in the shoulder strap regions. The guy helping me out said his was the same way but after a season it broke in a bit and feels much more flexible.

Just wondering/curious about other's personal experience and opinion(s) on the matter.

Thanks in advance

yes and no.
the straps break in, your friend at the local store is not a liar.
that one strap has a hydration hose in it though and that will always be the stiffer of the two shoulder straps. count on it.
it's still the best backcountry pack around for under 100 bucks. money is for lift tickets.

It's not actually designed for skis, but you can strap them in vertically with the snowboard straps (that big black buckle in the photo). That works fine for carrying them. In that case, they'd be attached vertically, flat up your back.Or if you want ski specific and don't need a snowboard carry check out http://www.backcountry.com/store/BCA0066 , it is the same pack without the snowboard carry straps. The Stash pack I linked to has a diagonal ski carry (with the skis bases together). - SMS24
