When you're headed into the backcountry to take advantage of the untouched powdery bliss, having the gear to keep you safe and warm is essential. Dakine's Blade Backpack 1800cu inches of space, is large enough to carry everything you need for a day of extreme freedom. The Blade can carry your board, has quick draw ice axe sleeves, and is designed with a quickaccess pocket for your shovel and probe. With top load and back access entry, you don't have to empty your entire bag to get out your lunch and your water won't freeze in the insulated hydration sleeve.
fits and functions great
I use this pack year round it fits me like a glove. I empty the winter stuff and refill with summer gear. the zippers and pockets hold gear for every season.
Awsome Backpack
Good Straps and Padding. Durable and Lightweight
EPIC
Rode this season with my Dakine Blade Pack. I love this pack because it has great storage management for all my day goods (shovel, probe, rope, first aid, TP, hand warmers..ect.. & goodies. Hydration system works well, I use a 3L camel back inside with termal tube. Size is wonderful for good overnight trips however compression straps allow for use on lifts. Only complaint i have is the pouch on the hip belt Ripped from tree branches hitting it, still useable though only ripped first layer.
