Black Diamond Covert with Avalung Winter Pack - 1343-1953cu in
Great all around day backcountry pack

This pack it built well and fits all necessary gear for a good long day in your favorite backcountry zone. With the Avalung the straps might feel a little uncomfortable on your shoulders but with a few sessions it should break in nicely. Another great thing about this pack is the stow-away helmet pouch. Everyone should be wearing a helmet while skiing so a pack with a place to strap your helmet on for those grueling climbs is definitely a plus. If you are looking for a pack with a little more room check out the anarchist avalung. But for the avid day tripper this pack should be perfect.
