Black Diamond Bandit Avalung Pack - 671cu in

The Black Diamond Bandit Avalung Pack is skier Seth Morrison's pro model winter backpack. Designed to be lightweight and minimalist, the Bandit is ideal for outside-the-gate resort skiing, cat boarding, or fast-and-light touring missions. Last Season the Bandit was just a comfortable pack, this season it's Avalung equipped in order to help you breathe underneath the snow should you suddenly become trapped beneath an avalanche debris field.

• Built-in Avalung system significantly extends your fresh air supply in case you're caught in an avalanche and buried beneath the snow
• Fresh air is pulled from the valve box by your shoulder, through the Avalung mouthpiece, and when you exhale, CO2 is expelled from the exhaust port by your waist
• Avalung mouthpiece and tubing stow away in the shoulder strap when not in use, but are easy to reach so you can extend the mouthpiece just before you drop in
• Diagonal ski carry cable extends when you need it and stays retracted when not in use
• Minimalist suspension design uses lightweight straps and webbing waistbelt that carry light loads comfortably and allow for ample adjustability
• Hydration sleeve allows you to use a hydration bladder to stay hydrated and the insulated design keeps your water from freezing solid
• Enclosed shovel and probe organizer pocket makes it easy to find your entire avie-tool kit quickly, and the enclosed design protects your essentials
