Clip in, strap up, and go big with the Ortovox Traverse Light 20L Daypack
What Our Gearhead® Experts Are Saying:
“I took the Traverse Light 20L Daypack on a ski mountaineering objective last spring and it performed exactly how I needed it to. At only 14.5 ounces I barely noticed it was there, and the Airvent back system kept things comfortable even on a long bootpack in warm conditions. The shoulder strap pockets are a small detail that makes a huge difference when you need your phone or a snack without stopping to dig through the main compartment.”
The alarm goes off before the sun comes up and the objective is already in your head. A long approach, a technical ridge, and a descent that demands everything you have. On days like that, every ounce of gear gets scrutinized, and the Ortovox Traverse Light 20L Daypack earns its place without debate. Tipping the scale at just 14.5 ounces, it is the lightest alpine pack in the Ortovox lineup, and it carries that title without compromising on the features that matter when the terrain gets serious.
The 210D ROBIC face fabric, built from 72% recycled nylon, is both tear and abrasion resistant so it holds up against rock, ice, and the general roughness of moving through high mountain environments. The Airvent back system keeps airflow moving between you and the pack while maintaining a close-to-body fit that stays stable during technical movement on skis or on rock. Three shoulder strap pockets mean your essentials are always within reach without breaking stride, and the removable hip belt and chest straps let you dial the fit to the objective at hand. Helmet carry and trekking pole attachments round out the feature set for a pack that is genuinely ready for whatever the mountain asks of you.
