Arc'teryx Silo 50 Backpack - 2746-3173cu in description Arc'teryx made the Silo 50 Backpack large enough to take on a weekend ski tour and versatile enough to carry everything whether you prefer AT gear of a splitboard. The front pocket keeps your shovel and probe easily available in case of an avalanche. Arc'teryx gave the Silo 50 Backpack a roll-top design and side zipper to allow easy access even when your ride is strapped to your pack. Of course, this backcountry ski pack also includes a hydration sleeve to carry your bladder and keep water a sip away during your entire approach and descent. *Only available for US shipment. | Bottom Line: Dawn patrols are fun and all, but nothing compares to loading up the Arc'teryx Silo 50 Backpack and spending a weekend in the backcountry. |
Not recommended for multi-day ski mountaineering
terex17794776: 
No, I am not stoked on my new gear -- I returned it. I chose Arcteryx because the Bora pack I bought over 10 years ago provided me excellent service, until it got stolen. I chose this silo 50 for the ski carry capability, but other than that I did not like it. It is too small to carry skis, mountaineering gear, winter survival gear, camping gear, 2 l of water and food for a Mt. Shasta type climb and descent. The padding and strap construction are not really rugged enough for the 60+ pounds I carry when ski gear is strapped on. The other thing I did not like was this goofy rollover top that hits you in the back of the head. This bag would probably be OK for a day trip with lighter loads.
