Hi all i would like to buy some sort of backpack that can fit backcountry ski gear and a t2i with 1 or 2 lenses and a few small accessories. Doesn't need to be huge like the Tilopa or quite as expensive. But it would be nice for it to be somewhat waterproof, pretty durable and not to expensive (tough i know)

If anybody has suggestions, reviews, or is selling one get at me!!


Thanks M&A

You're skiing at Baker I assume. Don't settle for anything less than f-stop.

Grant Gunderson skis there alot. Whenever I'm there I see him, with his f-stop pack too. There's a damn good reason he uses it too.

General rule of thumb with anything involving camera equipment: don't cheap out

Look like your set right there.

I might actually get this, i have been needing a larger bc bag for a while. My dakine heli pro just doesn't quite cut it anymore. Although it's nice for just those fast elbow laps.

On the other hand i do have a gregory 65 backpacking bag, it's a little big for ski touring but my bag doesn't have to be full it seems to be waterproof enough. I really need to get myself one of those icu thingys seems pretty handy.
