getting this pack concluded a long quest I was on for the best snowboard touring pack I could find. I know folks love their Ospreys and Dakines but I preferred an external shovel pocket that the Switch didn't have, and then I had been hearing Dakine's quality had gone downhill although their designs are hard to beat. This pack has it all; insulated drinking tube sleeve, the side pocket is surprisingly roomy for the shovel handle and probe (even my curved DB deploy) nice top pocket for mitts or whatever and then it's accessible in 2 ways with the board or snowshoes strapped on. pretty fricken' sweet. The lifetime warranty makes it a safe purchase but it seems unlikely I will have to deal with that seeing as Gregory folk aren't snoozing on the quality control.
