The Switch 25+5 Has It All
By Jim McIntosh
October 3, 2006
This is the perfect size pack for an all day tour and is versatile enough with the removable hydration pack to do a couple quick laps. The pack fits your shovel, probe, and skins in a very nice outside pack. This pack also has a nice design for access to your extra clothing. The only draw back to this pack is that the waste buckle is a little to small to work with thick gloves or mittens. It's still a 5 star in my mind.
