Why We Like The Osprey Soelden 42L Backpack
When we are skinning a couple of miles into a remote yurt, we trust the Osprey Soelden 42L pack to get us there while keeping us organized and our gear dry. The DWR treated nylon face fabric can handle everything from a blizzard to a snag on low hanging branches, so we can keep moving up and down the mountain. Like all Osprey packs, the Soelden features eco-certified, recycled materials and plenty of attachment points and functional pockets that are handpicked for specific outdoor pursuits—in this case, backcountry skiing, snowboarding, and mountaineering. This is Osprey's largest volume technical ski pack with a gender-specific fit that's made for men.

Excellent winter pursuit pack. Streamlined,
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Excellent winter pursuit pack. Streamlined, good access and adaptability, sizeable, light, well-made, and I love the 1" webbing for front of the hip belt. Worth adding more/different color options than black or beige.

Decent pack but has flaws
Used as a quiver of one for ski day trips, short overnights, and technical summer daytrips for a year of heavy use. In general the pack worked ok, but definitely has some flaws. A 40L pack without a decent internal frame is hard to understand. Fully loaded with skis, boots, skins, crampons, ski crampons, rope, rack, helmet, ice axe, etc. the pack carries very poorly. Other flaws include the flapjack cover being non removable and getting in the way when using the brain, bad diagonal ski carry system, weak buckles prone to breaking, bad ice axe carry system, and lots of confusing and unnecessary straps. The pack has lots of unnecessary features while still missing a few important ones. Compared to similar bags it is also quite heavy. Overall a decent bag that is spacious and durable, but carries load poorly and has a poorly thought out feature set.

Ski Patrol
I’m about two months into using this pack 4 days a week for working ski patrol and as of now I’m blown away. I will say I find myself not using the full valume available but I’m stoked I went for the 42 over the 30 because then I need the extra space it’s so nice to just loosen the straps and fit everything I need for long days out on the snow. I can not recommend this pack enough for any situation where bringing gear out for long days in the snow is needed. If your just looking for a pack to take with you on short trips to the snow the 30 will probably be enough for you but if you want a pack which can do it all I’d stick to the 42. The only thing I’d change is I’d have a second retaining strap for the brain retention strap as It would just make the straps a little nicer for when you don’t have much in the pack

Snow Specific Pack with Surprising Versatility
This is a great snow pack. No doubt about it. The snow shedding back panel, organization, and weather resistant materials make this ideal for skiing, boarding, and snowshoeing! However, we actually frequently use this to carry our photography equipment. The whole back panel can unzip to the base! This gives you great access to larger more fragile equipment. We just place a padded insert in the bag to keep the equipment protected, and love the wide opening. This is obviously meant for getting better access to equipment while putting the snow/water proof material 'face' of the bag on the snow, but it's a versatile function that we love. The straps which allow for A-frame ski carry and snowboard carry is useful for more equipment as long as you are creative! We've carried tripods, snowshoes, poles, and more with them.
