Mountain Hardwear Splitter Backpack

My go to pack for tough travels.
I travel between DC and NY on a weekly basis and I have tried several packs and this one surpasses them all on many fronts. I ride comfortable in buses with it in the bus either under the seat or in the cargo section of the bus. This is one tough pack that makes me feel relaxed knowing that the exterior can handle any tough spots. Once you understand how to load this pack, it may become your traveling friend.

very good pack
very impressed with this pack so far. It doesn't look like it's capable of holding a full rack and rope but it certainly is. The gear loops are genius and the compression straps do a great job keeping the heavy stuff stationary and close to your back. The dedicated chalk bag pocket, shoe pocket and tarp are nice touches as well. Comfort wise the pack is very good, easily adjustable to focus the weight where you want it. And it goes without saying the way it opens flat is SO much better than a top-loader. Simply a terrific pack for climbers.

Best Back Pack Ever
Not only great for outdoors, but makes a perfect carry on back for traveling.
