Why We Like The Mountain Hardwear Alpine Light Roll Top 45L Backpack
Built to be the best alpine climbing pack in the world, the Mountain Hardwear Alpine Light Roll Top 45L Backpack is made to withstand the elements without weighing us down. The Alpine Light features a PU-coated nylon ripstop for a highly durable, waterproof shell to stand up to rock and snow as we climb toward the clouds. It's a climber-friendly pack with a modular center rope strap and mountaineer-friendly with external attachment points for our ice axe, crampons, and technical ice tools. The aluminum frame and closed cell foam frame sheet help distribute our load, but we can also tackle the mountain minimalist-style by removing the lid, sternum strap, hip belt, and frame sheet for our ultralight missions. This roll-top version opens wide for easy access and rolls down to reduce bulk and keep our load as secure as possible.

Absolutely Waterproof Alpine Pack
This is the best alpine climbing pack available that I know of. It’s very durable. Very light. Totally waterproof. Climbs great. Carries great. Looks great. 10/10. I use this year round.

Insane water proofing
Best pack Mountain hardware has ever made, I use this for mountain rescue missions and recently took this into some canyons in Zion and fully submerged this pack in pools of water for extended periods of time and it stayed completely dry. My only complaint is they don’t make this in a 55L size!!

High quality, versatile backpack
So far I'm really enjoying this pack. Enough room to use it as a travel bag, detachable brain comes off easily and you can fit the main body of the bag in an overhead on the plane. Remove the frame too, and you have a great roomy daypack. The lightweight and durable materials held up against some solid rain while hiking in the cascades with no water seeping through. Looking forward to putting it through some more technical adventures this summer! Giving 4 stars because I'd have liked an interior sleeve along the back to help separate avalanche tools or do other minor internal organization in the main compartment, but otherwise this is almost exactly what I've been looking for!
