Ortovox Switchback 32 Ski Touring Backpack

The Ortovox Switchback 32 Ski Touring Backpack will get you and your gear to the objective.  From long ascents to steep couloirs, ski tours in alpine terrain require optimum weight and maximum functionality. This pack is a lightweight, technically sophisticated backpack with alpine features for demanding ski tours. 

One especially practical feature: quick access to important equipment. Shoulder and hip pockets, a side compartment for climbing skins and ski crampons, and a rope can all be easily accessed without having to remove the backpack. A carabiner can also be used to attach skis parallel to the backpack while it is being worn. 

Avalanche equipment stored in the separate safety compartment can be quickly grabbed in an emergency, while all items in the main compartment can be accessed via the fully fold-out back. A large, separate compartment provides additional space in the upper part of the SWITCHBACK 32 . Two ice axe holders, a daisy chain, a rope attachment and a helmet net complement the versatile attachment options. 

• The most important items of equipment can be stowed or retrieved without having to remove the backpack
• Features tailored to ski touring
