Khroma 38
$249.95
Description

  Whether you’re tackling the Haute Route Ski Tour or launching a complex ascent, the Rab Khroma 38 is the ultimate ski touring pack for when you need a stable load and plenty of space for kit. The ultra-tough Spectra® Ripstop fabric is made with fibers that are fifteen times stronger than steel gram for gram, so the pack will endure scrapes with sharp tools, rock, and ski edges without compromising on low weight. It’s also UV-resistant, essential for multiple days at high altitudes.

  The close-fitting X-SHIELD™ back system distributes weight evenly to keep your load stable on both the up and the down, as well as featuring a snow-shedding back panel for those deep powder days. Every detail has been designed to make accessing your kit quick and easy, with a zipped back entry allowing you to reach gear at the bottom of the main compartment without emptying the whole pack. The large roll top provides extra storage space when you need to scale up your load, while a separate avalanche safety equipment compartment gives rapid access at the crucial moment.

  Secure your gear on the boot pack using the A-frame carry for skis or splitboard, a detachable rope carry strap, and a HeadLocker ice axe attachment. A detachable helmet holder provides added volume and easy helmet access. Keep smaller essentials, such as snacks or sun cream, to hand in the drop pocket or the large hipbelt pocket.

Footprint sold separately.

Yes, Strava for Dogs Is Now a Real Thing
  Owners of adventure dogs tend to be pretty adamant that their outdoorsy pooch is not just great, but the best adventure dog ever. A sweet and understandable sentiment, if an entirely subjective one. But now, the world’s biggest fitness app is making it possible for people to back up their talk with some cold hard numbers. That’s right: Strava for...

Way, Way, Too Close to a Whale
  People dream of boating or swimming with whales. But that’s based on the false assumption that they are gentle giants that don’t bother humans. But they’re not. And they do. Just ask Liz Cottriel and Julie McSorley, who found themselves kayaking off California’s Central Coast when a group of humpback whales began feeding all around them. Producer Aaron Scott reports...
Skiing Is Broken. Can Indy Pass Fix It?
  If you ski, you know the problem. If you don’t ski, that problem might be the reason why. Skiing has simply become too expensive, too crowded, too commercial, just too much of what you don’t like and not enough of what you do. With megaresorts dominating the industry, peak-season lift ticket prices next winter will reach $299—per day—at some spots. Pass...
Youth Sports Alliance Wins Big for Getting Kids Outside
  Overwhelming evidence shows that active kids do better in life—physically, emotionally, socially, and financially. That’s why Utah-based Youth Sports Alliance is committed to helping all kids experience the outdoors. With the Defender 130, that job gets a lot easier, says Executive Director Emily Fisher. “Being able to offer transportation and move mountain bikes, skis, and other gear removes a significant...

The Rab Veil 12’s Comfort and Versatility Make It the Only Running Pack We Need
  Rab Veil 12 Reviewed Price: $180   Weight: 10 ounces (without flasks)   Size: S-L (Unisex)   Capacity: 12 liters   Pole Storage: Yes   Hydration: Flasks and bladder   Running packs can often feel like a cumbersome-but-necessary evil: you’d rather not have to wear one, but you need to be able to carry essentials with you. Good packs will lessen this burden by doing a...
Meet the Adventure Sandal You Didn’t Know You Needed
  Spring is right around the proverbial corner: the bend in the river, the arête on the cliff, the switchback on the trail. Outdoor adventure soon turns from sliding on snow to playing on water, rock, and dirt. So, go ahead and daydream. Get out and get active, but don’t let your desires overlook the need to gear up smartly and...
The Iditarod Is Embroiled in a Controversy Over Moose Guts
  Whats the weirdest rule in endurance sports? A few come to mind:   Regulations governing the New York City Marathon explicitly forbid runners from pooping on the pavement at the starting line. Article 7.01-G of the Ironman Triathlon rulebook prohibits nakedness in transition areas. And dont get me started on the wackadoo bylaws enforced by pro cyclings governing body, the Union...
The Best Yoga Gear of 2024
  You never know if your yoga practice will find you sweating during cat-cow or freezing from wintry drafts or overzealous AC blasts. But that unpredictability shouldn’t apply to your yoga gear. The best new tops, bottoms, mats, and accessories will help make sure your focus remains on your practice, not the distractions.   The Winners at a Glance Girlfriend Collective Float...
The Best PFAS
  There’s a problem with a lot of waterproof garments—they contain per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS). Also known as forever chemicals, PFAS are linked to cancer, liver and kidney damage, and other health problems.   But forever chemicals’ time may be limited. A California law that will go into effect on January 1, 2025 bans the manufacture, sale, and distribution of textiles...
The Trouble with the Internet’s Most Famous Moose
  When Marty Moose strolled into Santa Fe looking for a mate, he became a viral sensation in New Mexico. But that did nothing to help his search for love—and it created big issues for wildlife managers. Moose don’t usually wander that far south. Marty got a lot of “likes” and eventually his notoriety began to cause problems. Producer Steph Joyce...
