I use this backpack as my daily driver for backcountry skiing, great for ski mountaineering, packs everything well. the one downside is sometimes the strapping system gets frayed at tension points, but you are easily able to fix them

The BD Cirque have been a staple pack in our quivers for years, and just got lighter and stronger thanks to a sailcloth fabric. The 35 liter size is great for a few night hut trip, with room for extra layers, food, avalanche gear, and emergency supplies.
