I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Description

Why We Like The Dakine Poacher RAS 26L Pack

We love the Dakine Poacher RAS 26L Pack because it provides ample space for all our backcountry essentials without being bulky. It's perfect for those who prefer light-and-fast tours. With load-limiting shoulder straps and a padded hip belt, this pack hugs our body and stays in place for a smooth and streamlined riding experience.

The main compartment, accessible from the back panel, easily accommodates snacks, maps, layers, and more. No need to unload the entire pack to access our gear. Additionally, there's a separate front compartment specifically designed to hold our shovel and probe for quick and easy access in case of an emergency. For even more safety, this pack is compatible with Mammut's Removable Airbag 3.0 System (sold separately), which can be inflated within seconds to prevent burial in an avalanche.

Details:

  • The Dakine Poacher RAS 26L Pack is a mid-volume avalanche airbag pack, perfect for short backcountry tours.
  • With a 26-liter volume capacity, it has enough space to carry all your essentials for powder-hunting missions.
  • The back panel compartment provides room for an extra layer and more.
  • There's a dedicated front panel to securely store and access your avalanche tools.
  • The breathable and snow-shedding back panel keeps your back dry and comfortable.
  • It offers ski and board carry options, allowing you to go hands-free during technical ascents.
