Free Rider 20 S
$144.00
Description

  The Ortovox Free Rider 20 S fits extra snugly against the back when freeriding in any terrain – just like a second skin This is primarily down to the flat, elasticated Clasp Flex Belt which provides control in every situation as well as reliable support. The soft back pads hug the back perfectly without restricting the movements of the spine. On the inside, the back of the backpack can be fitted with the Clasp Spine Protector (sold separately). This spine protector is certified to motorcycle standards and can be purchased separately. It slides easily into a separate inner pocket. The focus here is both on your safety and on the environment: This freeriding backpack is completely PFC-free and, thanks to the use of recycled polyester, also climate-neutral.

  In order to optimally adjust the pack while on the go, it can be quickly compressed using the integrated side straps. When it comes to rappelling into steep gullies or short walking passages, the pack has all the necessary attachment options for skis, an ice axe or rope, not to mention the tried-and-tested helmet net, emergency card and hydration system compatibility. All the features are well stowed away on the outside to prevent them catching, even when in difficult terrain.

  This compact freeriding backpack also offers enough space for climbing skins and ski crampons, ensuring extra flexibility out on the mountain. Emergency equipment can be neatly stowed away and kept at hand in a separate safety compartment, while all other items in the main compartment are accessible via front or back access. The Free Rider 20 S is a versatile companion for maximum flexibility and freedom of movement on skis.

This Is the Best Portable Air Compressor We’ve Tested
  Most people who spend time driving their rig off pavement know the benefits of letting air out of their tires (also known as “airing down”), but I’m willing to bet that they don’t do it as often as they should.   I’m guilty of this even though I’ve written about overlanding and off-road gear for nearly a decade. Why do we skip...
Extremely Rare White Bison Born in Yellowstone National Park
  If photography often boils down to being at the right place at the right time, then Erin Braaten hit the jackpot last week. The outdoor photographer was traveling in Yellowstone National Park last Tuesday when she caught an indelible moment: a white bison seeing the world for the first time.   Though Braaten missed the actual birth by just a few...
‘Brush To Mountain’ Hunting Pants: Old-School Durability Meets Modern Tech Comfort
  First impressions are hard to overcome, and when I first opened the package containing Forlohs latest product, I scratched my head and thought, huh, they look like Fjallravens. And, well, the similarity in appearance to some of Scandinavias top pants is rather uncanny.   Forloh shares a lot with the Swedish icon. But its new Brush To Mountain Pro (BTM Pro)...
This Is the Best Way to Start an Adventure Story
  You don’t have much time to grab people’s attention nowadays. This is one of the things I emphasize in my annual writing workshops, before we read through a handful of first sentences that do just that—grab our attention, make us sit up, engage, and dive into the rest of the story. One of them, which I have memorized: “We are...
The 10 Most Fuel-Efficient 4×4/AWD Pickups of 2024
  We want it all from our pickup trucks. Maximum towing, maximum payload, maximum comfort, and, of course, maximum power.   But gas isnt cheap, and that means things are changing. Instead of getting the most of everything, were looking at getting the most for our dollars at the gas station. That means were looking at trucks with the lowest numbers —...
Rescue in Mazama After Eight Climbers Get Stranded in Snow
  A recent story about a search-and-rescue mission in Washington State highlights an important lesson for rock climbers. When attempting your first multi-pitch route on a big wall of rock, its best to keep your climbing party small.   According to the Methow Valley News, on Tuesday, May 21, a group of eight climbers from Illinois and Indiana attempted to ascend a...

Reasons to Love Running in Chicago
  “Chicago is one of the best places in the world from May through October, with all its festivals and events,” says Dave Zimmer, “and the running scene is vibrant year-round.” The Chicago-area native should know. Zimmer and his wife, Lisa, spent the last 28 years opening Fleet Feet stores across the city. And though he admits, “you have to be...

The most recent incident occurred Friday morning, causing Colorado Parks Wildlife (CPW) officials to issue a renewed warning to residents and visitors.

‘Groundbreaking’ Bears Ears Plan Would Endow Tribes With Oversight Powers
  For the first time, Tribal leaders are working with the federal government to develop a Resource Management Plan (RMP) to responsibly maintain ancestral lands. Bears Ears National Monument became public land in 2016 but has been culturally sacred to Native American Tribes for centuries. The proposed development plan would adopt the tribes traditional stewardship methods.   Dubbed Alternative E, the management...
Patagonia Refugio Daypack 30L Review: The Perfect Pack for Outdoorsy Professionals
  Picture this: Your coworker invites you out for a scenic hike, but all you bring to the office is your briefcase, which can hardly fit a rain shell, let alone a Nalgene or hiking shoes. This is where the Patagonia Refugio 30L Daypack comes into play.   Both a laptop backpack and hiking daypack, this bag combines the functionality of a...
