"Nice light pack with good storage options. Lacks some climate versatility. Best suited for cold weather climates or looks nice enough to use as a casual tourist pack. Not well suited for sweat in warmer climates. First short hike with this in warm, humid climate left a good portion of the vented back panels soaked in sweat. This left me missing my similarly-sized trampoline style frame pack that while heavier, has far superior support and ideal ventilation for the back panel for similar price."
"This holds the items that work well for a casual hike and a more complex hike - super excited to get more miles on it to confirm how rugged it is"
"So handy! You don't even realize it's on."
"I am 54 years old. I have lead countless big game hunts, both on horseback and foot. I have spent my whole life in the most rugged and isolated environments. I am a Flight Surgeon with the US Special Forces, responsible for the most precious blood. If you want peace of mind, knowing your family is using the proper equipment, enabling them to do dangerous things safely, you want Black Diamond. I’m too old, experienced, and impatient to deal with much else. Major Biesinger US Army."
"Thoughtfully built - it has a semi-rigid back support, with lightweight but durable fabrics. The shoulder straps with pockets are really nice. This is my go to pack for longer days out, like a mountain summit or a day with big temperature shifts that I need to pack some layers."
"I really love my new bag, very breathable on my back which is amazing because I produce so much heat. I use my bag everyday."
"If it only has ice axe carrying capabilities, this would be a perfect pack"
"It’s a little bit small"
"As alway BD delivers fine products for you adventurers."
"The magic is in integrating the Distance shoulder straps and waist storage system with a 30 liter pack. Fast and light missions, 30 plus miles a day easy!"

The Continuous Fit Harness incorporates fit and access inspired by our Distance packs, with a seamless suspension that wraps from the backpanel into the shoulder straps and across the hipbelt to eliminate pressure points and provide a contoured fit.
Our Distance and Pursuit series packs are purpose-built and fine-tuned for mountain running and technical day hiking, with feature sets that provide quick access and intelligent storage for essential gear.
