Hyperlite Mountain Gear Prism 40L Backpack

Why We Like The Prism 40L Backpack

The mission is grand, and the conditions are bleak, but the Prism shares out grit. We stuff all our gear into the cavernous body and pull the 4 compression straps tight. We slide the hip belt out, so it doesn´t interfere with our fully racked harness, while the low-profile lid keeps our rope at the ready. Whether we´re climbing a mixed route or postholing through knee deep powder, the light, rugged construction moves with us, not daring to challenge our stability more than the mountain already is.
