Black Diamond Sphynx Backpack - 1953-2563cu in

Item #BLD0308 | 0 in Stock
4 Star Rating

Good climbing pack

By Ranked #515 - Overnight Backpacks (2000 - 2999 cu in) March 27, 2010

Got this pack primarily for ice climbing and it has worked well. Good, sturdy construction and the pickpockets for holding ice tools work great. The strap under the top flap does a good job of securely holding a rope in place. Wish it had a shovel pocket and a gear loop to hold an ice axe. Other than that, comfortable, well-fitted pack.
