Black Diamond Anarchist with Avalung Winter Pack - 1953-2563 cu in
The best of both worlds
By Aaron Wilbur
Ranked #28 - Winter Packs
November 13, 2008
This pack is the best i've had for backcountry, not even including the avalung! Very comfortable with good sized loads on it, and i barely notice the integrated frame. The only improvement this pack could have is straps for a snowboard, but those are easy enough to sew on. I absolutely love the side zip pocket, it gives me easy access to my goods when i have my board strapped on.
