Ortovox designed the Ski Plus Pack for mellow day trips and short technical tours into the backcountry. Ortovox gave this 23 liter pack an opening back panel and a convenient horseshoe-shaped main opening for easy access to all your essential gear. The Ski Plus features a ski carry system compatible with boards of any size, dedicated shovel and probe pockets and two ice axe loops for more exposed missions. Water resistant zippers keep your extra layers dry, an optional hydration system lets you drink on the go, and a signal whistle could come in handy in an emergency.

Great fit, but bring your skinny boards. | |

This pack is very well made, with a fantastic snug and streamlined fit to your torso. I really the simple, functional design. The back-panel access is a great design that works very well. I wanted badly to keep this bag, but the a-frame only ski carry system falls significantly short compared to other options out there. If you look at the profile shot of this bag, you are limited to skis no wider than those black straps on the side which are stitched down and fixed in length. If you drive fat planks, then your SOL. I sent this bag back to BC.com and got the BD Covert 22, which doesn't have as good a fit as the ortovox, nor the back panel access, but the highly functional ski carry of that pack took precedence for me. | |
