Osprey Packs Switch 55+5 - 3700 cu in
| where to buy? |
| Description from backcountry: |
| The Osprey Switch 55+5 is the ultimate hut trip, haute route,
overnight touring pack. When you combine all three parts of the Switch
55+5, there's enough space for your sleeping bag, clothes and food. The
300-cubic-inch AquaSource will carry water and skins inside, and a
shovel on the outside via a bungee strap. The detachable 700-cubic-inch
Switch 12 yo-yo pack, when combined with the Aquasource, makes a great
short daytrip pack for a combined total of 1000 cubic inches, and a
built-in snow safety gear organizer. For that longer tour from the hut,
use the 55 without the detachable Switch 12 yo-yo pack for a full 3000
cubic inches of carrying capacity. A large front mesh pocket keeps your
shovel, probe and skins within easy reach. When it's time to pack out,
put all 3 pieces back together for 3700 cubic inches of space. Bottom Line: Touring packs just got a whole lot more sophisticated. |
