Black Diamond Covert Avalung Winter Pack - 1343-1953cu in
Black Diamond Covert with Avalung Winter Pack

I own this pack but unfortunately I find it to be a bit small for longer tours or for tours where I'm really moving and want to carry a couple layers in my pack. That being said, for resort days it makes a nice pack for some lunch and an extra single layer - but then you're wearing an avalung inbounds which is a bit overkill. In hindsight I would have gone for the avalung on a large pack and snagged this one in the non-avalung version. Construction is solid and the ski carry works great in all configurations.

I disagree, you can hold at least one extra layer and have room for a lot of extra stuff.
