Pushing for the summit calls for a lightweight and versatile backpack that we can trust in the harshest conditions. The BLUE ICE Chiru 32L Daypack was designed as a feature-loaded backpack for mountaineering and ice climbing to help us reach our summit. The zippered top hatch opening allows us to retrieve our gear easily, and a zippered pocket on the top of the hatch carries our quick-access items. The padded and adjustable harness-style shoulder straps and the ergonomic waist belt ensure a comfortable carry and an even load distribution. Two integrated metal dog bones, along with a pair of bungees, allow us to carry two ice axes on our pack, and the integrated helmet carry allows us to stash our helmet on our pack when we don't need it. Load adjustment straps and an adjustable sternum strap ensure the pack is sitting where it needs to be, while dual pairs of side compression straps compress the pack for an optimized carry.
