Marmot Eiger 35 Backpack - 2150cu in
Great Pack, Poor Loops

I use this pack primarily for skiing and it is great. The diagonal carry is great and the pack holds the load of skis effortlessly. Holds enough for extended ski tours and the harness is adjustable so it stays comfortable. The only aspect I do not like about this pack is the ice axe loops; they use a junky system that comes loose and leaves your axe swinging from you back. I have seen other eigers with a different system that seems better, look for the ones with a bungee, not a string, if you carry an axe.
