Backcountry Ski Backpack

Why a Ski Touring Backpack Is Essential

 Choosing the right ski touring backpack is crucial for backcountry skiing. Trip length and the gear  you need—skins, crampons, extra layers, ice tool—dictate the pack volume you require.

When you head out for a day or a multi‑day tour, you’ll pack very differently. Travel light to stay comfortable and efficient, but don’t forget warm layers for breaks at altitude—those go inside your pack during the climb.

Hydration on the Go

 Carry your hydration system—bottle or reservoir—inside your backcountry ski backpack so you can stay fueled and focused throughout your ascent.

Carry Your Safety gear

Don’t leave without your shovel and probe—gear that can save your life (or others’) in an avalanche. For day tours, our VACOA airbag pack offers 30 L of usable storage plus an integrated avalanche airbag for added security.

How to Choose Your backcoutry ski Backpack ?

Trip duration: Shorter outings call for smaller packs.

Gear volume: More equipment means you need more liters.

Physical level: Opt for the smallest pack that fits just what you need to lighten your load.

Resist the urge to overpack—two jackets “just in case,” five liters of water, a heavy gourmet meal—every extra gram counts uphill.
