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.

　　Mandi Blewett had been operating an angling lodge on British Columbias Dean River for a decade when the flood came. In 2010, record rains deluged the region, and the river spilled over its banks.

Wolves to Lose Federal Protections in Bill Passed by House
　　Efforts to protect Americas gray wolf population have sparked debate for years — and soon those plans may face another obstacle.

Swiss Army Roller Bag: Victorinox Mythic Frequent Flyer Carry-On Business Review
　　A roomy and tough carry-on bag is the only surefire way to prevent an airline from losing your luggage and sending your trip into a tailspin.

Move Faster, Transition Quicker, Adventure Longer: Dynafit TLT X Review
　　The moment it became clear was halfway up Teton Pass’s Taylor Mountain at sunrise. I was skinning in that quiet blue hour, expecting the usual ultralight-boot experience: a cramped toe box, midfoot pressure, and the slightly awkward stride I’ve learned to endure on big climbs. Instead, the TLT X moved with me. My stride felt almost too smooth for a...

A Look Inside Rejuvenated Toyota Arizona Proving Grounds
　　Turn right here and then feel free to get up to 50 mph. That’s what Toyota Senior Engineering Manager Jakin Wilson said to me as I pilot a Tacoma Trailhunter through a lumpy dirt trail, replete with sudden peaks and troughs, terrain changes, and sweeping bends. 　　I gleefully rocketed up to 55 mph, maxed out the suspension travel, and worked...
Tech-Heavy, Compact, and Inexpensive: Coast FL97R Headlamp Review
　　As I shivered in the predawn darkness, the need for a caffeine hit was overwhelming. I was groggy and tired from back-to-back days of whitetail hunting, and prime time was fast approaching. My head wasnt in the game, and it needed to be. 　　Twenty feet in the air, I shifted in my tree saddle and started digging through my pack,...
Tailgate Debates: Hunters’ Perspectives
　　Presented by Ram Trucks 　　 　　In my hunting crew, we have a varied set of individuals who come from different backgrounds with wildly different experiences. We have friends who spend all year hunting, and others who do more fishing than hunting, but they also go out on annual big game trips. 　　Despite their differences, they have core commonalities: they are...
Engineered for Detours: Toyota Trucks Challenge Shows How Adventure Shapes Athletes
