Why We Like The Black Diamond Dawn Patrol 32L Backpack
Whether we're up at the crack of dawn for a pre-work sunrise skin or spending our weekend hunting powder, the Black Diamond Dawn Patrol 32L Backpack has our back for our backcountry adventures. The 32-liter capacity carries plenty of gear and layers with external attachment points for our skis/snowboard, ice axes, and helmet. We also like the insulated pocket for our reservoir to keep icy crosswinds from freezing up our water supply.

Summit…. Check
We bought this pack as our “day pack” for a Mt Kilimanjaro trek, knowing that in “real life” we would really need ski packs. My 16 year old son wore the 32 and I wore the 25 for a seven day trek through five ecosystems and to Uhuru- the highest summit point. The functionality of the straps and pockets, the comfort and the durability of the pack are top notch! Can’t wait to experience the performance for skiing!

Good pack for its intended purpose
I bought this as a multi-sport pack but it probably excels best as a ski-touring pack. I'm new to the rear-entry design but as I grow accustomed can see the advantages. The metal (aluminum?) waist buckle is superior to the traditional plastic, and the hip pockets are large but rather awkward to access at times. The pack is comfortable and would seem to hold a good amount of weight without complaint. The interior pockets are, again, specific to ski touring but can be adapted for general use. In summary, this pack appears durable and should last a few years of constant use if the zippers hold up. The water bladder pocket could be slightly enlarged as I employ the HydraPak Hydrasleeve 3L and it requires some effort to stuff it in there.

Layout makes sense and the fit is good. Buckle takes getting used to, but I appreciate the durability and intent.
