HUT TO HUT IS WHATSUP

 

The Patagonia Snow Drifter 40L backpack is perfect for overnight ski touring. Whether you plan to go hut to hut out in Colorado, or you want to spend a few nights at the base of Tuckerman Ravine, this bag can easily carry your skis or board and a ton of other gear to comfortable and safe out in the back country. This bag is a traditional top loader with a removable lid. It is super easy to over stuff this thing thanks to the drawstring closure on top. Patagonia makes it super easy for you to get into your pack with a full length side zipper that is perfect for grabbing snacks or extra layers when you are fully loaded. We really like the durable feel of this pack that comes from the burly Cordura nylon fabric. All of the nylon is coated with polyurethane to help seal winter weather out and the straps and zipper pulls are glove friendly. The front of the pack is home to the dedicated snow tools pocket that will organize your shovel, probe, and snow saw like a tenured librarian. Inside the main compartment of the pack you will find a fleece lined goggle pocket and a mesh pocket that is great for warm gloves or a thermos. The Snow Drifter 40L may be a designed with skiing in mind, but this bag fits so well you might be taking it on your next summer backpacking trip too.
