Splitter 40 Backpack - 2440cu in

The Mountain Hardwear Splitter 40 Backpack features plenty of pockets so that you'll know where every piece of your rig is once you get to the rock. The Splitter's panel-loading design means that you can open this pack, lay it flat on the rock, and see your chalk, shoes, harness, rope, and webbing cleverly organized in climbing-specific pockets.

To keep you comfortable on the trek to the crag, the Splitter has a removable HardWave suspension that conforms to the curve of your back and distributes weight evenly, as well as a padded waist belt for stability and an internal compression panel that keeps your heavy gear close to your back to prevent it from throwing you off balance. A stowable rope strap holds your rope on the way and hides away when you don't need it. Two zippered internal pockets keep your gear secure and organized so everything is in the right place when you get to your route.
