The DaKine Altitude ABS 25L Backpack takes DaKine's renowned backcountry design and adds the option of an ABS airbag (sold separately). The ABS airbag system allows you to stay higher up in the snowpack in the event of an avalanche, helping prevent deep burials. If you frequent avalanche terrain, the ABS system is one more tool you need if you want to stay safe this winter. With ski, snowboard, helmet, shovel and ice axe carry systems, the Altitude is a great way to take an ABS Vario Base Unit and turn it into a slick, sidecountry day pack.
