Summit Advanced Mountain Kit 25 Backpack

What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:

"I like this pack for fast alpine climbs when weight and efficiency matter most. The Dyneema fabric keeps it incredibly light while still feeling durable enough for technical terrain. The modular design is great because you can strip it down for speed or keep features like the rope and ice tool carry when the route demands it."

We reach for the Summit Advanced Mountain Kit 25 Backpack when speed, efficiency, and technical performance define the objective. The North Face built this Summit Series pack alongside elite alpine athletes, creating a minimalist design that thrives on big routes where every gram and every movement matters.

Constructed with ultralight Dyneema® ripstop, the pack balances impressive durability with minimal weight for demanding alpine environments. The roll-top closure expands capacity when needed, while seam-taped waterproof construction helps protect essential gear from changing mountain conditions. Multiple ice tool carry options and an integrated rope carry system keep technical equipment secure and accessible.

A fully modular design allows us to strip the pack down to only what we need, helping maintain efficiency on fast pushes and technical climbs. Removable compression straps can even create an A-frame ski carry, making the AMK 25 versatile enough for alpine climbs, ski mountaineering missions, and high-consequence objectives.
