Black Diamond Distance 8L Backpack Black, L

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I use the Distance 8L for long trail runs and fast day hikes where I want to carry layers, snacks, and poles without bounce.

The harness fit is next-level-it feels more like a running vest than a pack, and the pole storage is super intuitive even while moving."We reach for the Black Diamond Distance 8L Backpack when our goals stretch beyond the average day hike and into alpine linkups, fast trail pushes, and light-and-quick mountain days.

Designed with the DNA of a running vest and the capacity of a technical pack, the Distance 8L moves with us, not against us, thanks to BD's Stitch-less Edge Taping Technology that enhances fit and reduces bulk and friction.

The pack's ultralight body is built from custom UHMWPE ripstop for incredible tear resistance without the weight, and stretch-woven side "wings" hug our torso for a secure, bounce-free feel even when fully loaded.

Trekking pole storage is quick and glove-friendly, while two front flask pockets and multiple stretch stash pockets keep hydration and snacks at the ready.

When every ounce matters and every step counts, the Distance 8 keeps us dialed and focused on the miles ahead.
