A jack-of-all-trades touring pack, the Helio 38 Backpack carries everything you need for a full day of ski touring, whether you’re guiding or traversing from hut to hut. Sleek and simple, the Helio Pack is lightweight, featuring a separate avy tool compartment that maximizes space and contours the shape of the pack, a breathable back panel that sheds snow, and back panel and top zippered access to your gear in the main compartment. The 38L pack is designed for all-day tours and overnight adventures with an added zippered side pocket that fits a 32oz water bottle, and an added lower zippered pocket in the main compartment for skins or crampons. Adjustable load lifter shoulder straps let you dial in weight distribution, and a padded waist belt with a zippered pocket and a gear loop makes for easy access to essentials. Ready for any tour, the Helio pack has dual piolet attachment points, an A-frame, a removable diagonal, and a removable snowboard carry.
