Description

  All-around alpine pack for skiing, climbing, and mountaineering

  Charge headlong into winter’s white light with the pack built for alpine adventure. The Hyperlite Mountain Gear Prism 40 beckons ice climbers, mountaineers, alpinists, and backcountry skiers to think big and go deep. Designed to meet at the intersection of speed, weight, security, and comfort, this top-loading pack features an extendable drawstring closure and an adjustable, removable low-profile lid. The hip belt provides two gear racks and two ice clipper slots, but is removable when not required for the task at hand, or when wearing a climbing harness. Highly adjustable compression straps secure crucial equipment while keeping the pack close to the body for free and unrestricted movement.

  Climbers can store a rope under the lid, glacier adventurers can store their wands in the side pockets, and backcountry skiers can depend on the A-frame carry when they’re on foot marching up the steep stuff. Alpinists of all types can round out the pack with the Prism Crampon Bag and Prism Ice Screw Case for an even more dialed setup (each sold separately). However you move when the cold comes calling, the Prism brings your pursuits into focus.

Footprint sold separately.

After a number of internal studies, Hyperlite has decided to remove the metal grommets from the weep holes of their packs. This product may ship with or without the grommet as they are phased out from Hyperlite's inventory.
The grommets were not an essential feature to the weep holes of the pack. Hyperlite has determined there is no physical function of these grommets and they have been merely for aesthetic purposes. Their design and production team has developed a consistent method of precision drilling the holes in the fabric. The heat generated from the friction from this process will seal the edges of the weep holes and eliminate the chance of the fabric fraying. This will now make the holes just as strong as when constructed with grommets.

5 Tips for Leveling Up Your Trail Running

This Japanese Gear Can Help Reduce Camping Stress
  I love camping with my family, but if I’m being totally honest, it stresses me out.

These thoughts were refined during a recent...

phaenom Wants to Upend the Ski Boot Market, and It Just Might
  It was mashed potatoes at Loveland Ski Resort. Spring conditions were in full effect, with lots of soft corn, slush snow, bright sunshine, and balmy air.

The Best Adventures in Minnesota Require a Paddle
  There are a lot of ways to experience the depth of a wild landscape: hiking, horseback riding, biking, off-roading. But none offer the same elegance and simplicity as paddling.
