Osprey Sopris Backpack

Yes, the 30-liter capacity is designed specifically for full-day tours. It provides enough room for your safety gear, extra layers, snacks, and hydration without being overly bulky for the descent.

The backpanel entry allows you to unzip the rear of the pack to access the main compartment while keeping the front of the pack—which rests against the snow—clean and dry. It is particularly useful when you need to retrieve a jacket or extra gloves without dumping out your entire kit.

Yes, the pack features versatile carry options that accommodate both skis and snowboards. This makes it a reliable choice regardless of whether you prefer skiing or riding.

The front panel is dedicated specifically to avalanche tools like your shovel and probe. This design ensures that your safety equipment is separated from your main gear and can be accessed instantly when every second counts.

The pack is hydration compatible, meaning it has an internal sleeve and routing for a reservoir, but the reservoir itself is not included. You will need to use your own compatible bladder.

Yes, the Sopris is built with glove-friendly buckles throughout. They are designed to be manipulated easily even when you are wearing thick winter gloves or mittens.
