Not Dakine's Best Pack

I have used Dakine packs for years and this is not the their best product. It looks cool and is probably great for carrying your lunch while you are riding the chairlift. Dakine in the past had thought of everything. Typically there is a place for everything you need and it is very organized. This pack does not have a great place for my shovel or probe. There is a place for my shovel handle on the outside, not great. If you are looking for a backcountry pack, this isn't it. If you want to look cool while riding the lift, this pack will work.
