Gear Review
Good Ski Pack
By Julia Niles
Ranked #139 - Winter Packs

This is a great choice for a day pack that fits nicely and organizes gear so it is easy to grab in a pinch and intuitive also.
There are not too many extra additions to this pack that I have not found useful in some way. I did find that the straps for carrying the skis diagonally on the back of the pack could be bigger. Skis are getting awesomely fat these days.
My only complaint is that the pack alone seems quite heavy.
