Mountain Hardwear Gnarwhal 18L opens up for faster gear access
The Mountain Hardwear Gnarwhal 18L Backpack is built for resort laps with enough versatility for off-piste and rope-ducking missions. The back-cess clamshell opening lays the back panel flat for digging out gear buried at the bottom, then doubles as a field surface for sorting tools during a tree run. Dual-fabric CORDURA construction pairs a 500D body with a 210D ripstop accent for lightweight durability that holds up to edges, tools, and repeated resort laps.
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
"I laid the back panel flat to swap layers and organize my avalanche tools without ever digging through the main compartment. It held everything in place on a slope without anything sliding off."
