The Peak Explorer's internal frame transfers loads efficiently to your hips, making it possible to carry heavy overnight gear in comfort. A top-loading main compartment with a floating lid adds flexibility for summit day packs, and the front shove-it pocket stows wet gear away from the main compartment. Trekking pole loops, ice axe loops, and compression straps keep gear locked down on technical terrain. Hipbelt pockets hold snacks and maps within easy reach.
