Ortovox Switchback 30L S Backpack - Women's Green Acid

Every transition on the skin track costs time, and the Ortovox Switchback 30L S Backpack is built to keep that time short.

A dedicated avy pocket separates probe, shovel, and beacon from the rest of the load, so a real emergency doesn't turn into a search through a jumbled main compartment.

The short back panel is sized for a woman's frame, keeping the pack out of the way through repeated kick turns, while three ski carry options, diagonal, A-frame, and Fast Skifix parallel, adapt to whatever the descent calls for.

What Our Gearhead(R) Experts Are Saying:"I've run enough companion rescue drills with this pack that I don't have to think about which pocket holds what anymore.

My hand goes straight to the probe without checking, which is the whole point when the clock is actually running.".
