Distance 8 Backpack (Fall 2022)
Black Diamond
Distance 8 Backpack (Fall 2022)
$104.96
Description

　　Built for the fast and light mountain adventurer, the Distance 8 pack transcends barriers with its hybrid design that includes vest-inspired suspension for running, and a unique feature set that allows you to carry the appropriate gear while navigating intricate mountain terrain.

　　Built from BD's UHMWP 10x Ripstop Yarns—the same burly material used in climbing dogbones and Ultralight Camalots—the Distance’s fabric is literally 10 times stronger than steel per weight, while remaining so light it floats in water.

　　The shoulder strap harness system utilizes Stitch-less Edge Taping Technology—meaning the shoulder strap edge binding is fully edge-taped instead of sewn, which allows for superior comfort, movement, and weight reduction. Also, the harness system is constructed with an adjustable, elastic-cording side compression system, which gives you a more secure ride while running scrambling and climbing.

　　This vest-like system also includes dual flask pockets that fit two HydraPak® SoftFlasks™ (sold separately) and a Deploy pocket to stash the BD Deploy Wind Shell (also sold separately).

Footprint sold separately.

20 Years of Wild Off-Road Racing: A Look Inside the Evolution of King of the Hammers
　　This year marks the official 20th anniversary of King of the Hammers (KoH), an off-road racing extravaganza that takes place each year in Johnson Valley, Calif. Perhaps most famous for spawning Ultra4 vehicles built for the gnarliest four-wheeling. KoH also includes high-speed desert running in trophy trucks, UTVs, and motorcycles — but rocks are always part of the equation. 　　Every...

Waterproof but Quiet: FORLOH Women’s AllClima Soft Shell Jacket Review
　　Coming from someone who has spent decades wearing waterproof gear, I was surprised to find the FORLOH AllClima Soft Shell Jacket incredibly waterproof and wind-resistant, yet still silent as I tramped all over Montana, field-testing it and trying to find this year’s muley. 　　This jacket ran the gamut of weather with me — sun and sweat, rain, hail, snow —...
Is the Station Wagon Dead in America? One of Its Biggest Fans Has Bowed Out

The Perfect Balance of Protection and Breathability: Kings Camo XKG Field Pant Review
　　Ive burned through over a dozen pairs of upland bird-hunting pants over the last 6 years. You really ask a lot from a set of chap-style pants like the Kings Camo XKG Field Pants. 　　They need to be the most durable pants in your closet, capable of withstanding miles of briar patches, taking a beating from cattail sloughs, and protecting...

A Serious Front-Zip Hunting Wader That Won’t Wreck Your Budget: Drake Guardian Elite HND Review
　　The price of duck hunting waders is getting out of hand. When SITKA entered the game with a premium wader, it seemed like every manufacturer followed suit with price hikes. 　　Unfortunately, unlike SITKA, most manufacturers werent creating a product that justified higher prices.

Therm-a-Rest MondoKing 3D Review: A Bed-Like Sleep for When You Don’t Need to Compromise
　　I’ve slept for many nights at a time on a mattress only a couple of inches thick. Sometimes all summer long. Sometimes, I arrive after the sun has gone down, and I throw down camp on whatever approximates flat. 　　If I have spare natural light, I might manage the landscape a bit (pack wedged here; rope coiled there), but more...
The F-150 of Flannels: MuskOx Field Grand Flannel Review
　　If I asked you to think of what a flannel is, most would likely think of a soft, chunky cotton shirt with a bold plaid pattern. No snaps. No eccentric trim. No handcrafted embroidery. It’s a white Ford truck with heated seats. It’s not going to blow any doors off. It just “is.” Durable. Capable. Dependable. 　　When conjuring up the...
My Favorite Shoulder Season Fishing Top: Free Fly Gridback Fleece Anorak Hoodie Review
　　As I stood on the doorstep of the South Fork Lodge with the sun on the Eastern horizon, there was a slight bite to the air.
