Edelrid Pit

Yes, the 35-liter capacity is sized specifically for a standard sport climbing setup. You can fit your harness, shoes, quickdraws, and chalk bag inside, while the external webbing and hook system are designed to carry your rope securely on the outside.

The front zipper is a major advantage over traditional top-loading haul bags. It allows you to lay the pack flat and see all your gear at once, making it much easier to find specific items without dumping everything out.

The Pit is designed for shorter approaches typical of sport climbing and gym use. While the padded shoulder straps and adjustable chest strap provide good comfort, the lack of a hip belt means it is best suited for lighter loads rather than long, multi-mile hikes.

It includes a dedicated small zippered pocket inside for your valuables. For quick-grab items like a water bottle or a guidebook, there is an elasticated outer pocket on the side.

Modeled after a traditional haul bag, the Pit uses robust materials intended to withstand the abrasion of rocky terrain and gym floors. It is built to handle the wear and tear of being tossed around at the base of a climb.
