Arc'teryx Khamsin 50 Backpack - 2746-3356cu in

For alpine climbers who want a few more features than your average stripped-to-nothing pack, Arc'teryx created the Khamsin 50 Backpack. Two aluminum stays and a dual-density frame sheet help support your load, and they can be removed to shave weight. Arc'teryx also added an emergency bivy pad for those unexpected nights in the open. The Khamsin 50 Backpack includes a collapsible kangaroo pocket that holds you crampons, screws, or extra layers then tucks out of the way for the climbing. When you need to get to something buried deep in this bag, just unzip the waterproof side access instead of going in through the top and risking a spill from 15 pitches up a route. *Only available for US shipment.

Bottom Line: If you want to get high in the mountains but don't want a featureless bag, then load up the Arc'teryx

Bomber_Pack

By:

This back pack is sick, super comfortable and has a ton of room for a full rack, rope, gear and other random shit you drag to the crag with you. I thought the pack had a camel back pocket in it which it doesn't but the kangaroo pouch on the outside of the pack makes a great camel back pouch. I went with the steazy Bluebird cause everyday in Tahoe is a Bluebird day. you can't carry skis but I'm sure you could ghetto rig something up, but if you're a snowboarder like myself you could carry the board sideways behind your back. All in all killer pack and an affordable quality Arc"teryx product with a warranty as Bomber as the pack itself. Look for a bright blue pack up on Donner summit and chances are it's yours truly. -CPAD.

Fits like a glove

By:

This packs is fantastic!!!!! The light weight material makes for a very light backpack. The moldable back piece can easily be adjusted to fit most any back and the added gear loops on the belt make for a great climbing pack. You can tell Arc'teryx has done their homework because this pack has great weight distribution and suspension. If it's an all day or weekend excursion this pack will hold most everything you need.

Great Fit

By:

This backpack rocks (so far). I'm fairly short 5'6" and the regular fit me perfectly. I had littl- to-no adjustment of the back support poles for it to fit my back like a glove. The gearloops on the belt are a great feature as well, especially when trad climbing. Lightweight and sturdy, would recommend it to anyone who climbs or backcountry skis as it would work great for either.
