In words

Intro
Tour model with a focus on simplicity and recycled materials. Large compartment for shovel and probe which can also hold skins and first aid kit; fairly big main compartment, interchangeable with all Switch backpacks. The back panel is thick but not too stiff (when full it could bulge), the trigger handle is mounted to the left and isn't particularly ergonomic. External flask holder, ski carrier that can also hold a splitboard.

Intro
Safety, a culture of doubt

Beyond the basic definition, there’s nothing as variable as snow conditions and the human psyche when under emotional stress. That's why, after purchasing the right self-rescue kit and airbag backpack, it’s paramount you do your research, train, scrutinize your decisions and, if necessary, opt for plan B. And, at least for now, don’t rely on artificial intelligence.
