CAMP
Bag Campack M5 Colour: Black / Grey

A profiled backcountry pack with all the fixings for intensive alpinism and mountaineering. A large stretch pocket on the front allows fast access to your shovel and probe in the event of an emergency. The rest of the gear is accessible either through the lid or the Backdoor opening allowing easy access to top and bottom loaded gear. The ski, axe and pole carrying systems are low profile so they do not get hung up while climbing and an external helmet carrying system keeps this bulky piece of gear from taking up space in the pack. Constructed from tough ripstop nylon that is coated to help with protection from the elements.

Performance CAMPacks are born from the ever-increasing demands of the world's fastest ski mountaineers, hiking and trekking and boldest alpine climbers. This year too we have introduced some changes: the whole M line has been renewed and the backpacks for climbing activities have also been improved. It is from this foundation that elements like function, fit, weight and speed are studied in excruciating detail. The end result is a line of packs guaranteed to perform for adventurers at every level and of any ability.

BACKDOOR
A wide zipper opening integrated into the back of several CAMPACK models allows the user to drop their pack and immediately access gear packed near the back and bottom.
Materials

Fabric choice is a finicky decision in performance packs. It is important that they are durable, but the most durable fabrics are also the heaviest. Where other manufacturers simply settle for these heavy fabrics or something affordable, but also cheap from a functional standpoint, C.A.M.P. spends much time and energy researching materials and testing them to find the optimal compromise between performance and weight. For our medium and large capacity packs, we use high denier 156 fabrics reinforced with hypalon and double layering at strategic stress and abrasion points. For our hyplerlight packs we use our SN44 fabric with does a particularly good job carrying heavy loads considering their light weight. These packs also feature strategic reinforcements to help protect against common failures.

Systems

The first thing most people notice about CAMP packs is their trim cuts and minimalist systems. This is because every CAMP pack is designed by a group of mountain athletes who live by the basic principle that less can indeed be more. CAMP packs are loaded with systems, but they have a tendency to be more profiled and simplistic than those of other pack manufacturers who use them in an effort to ‘oversell’ the features. We also design most systems to tuck away when not in use in order to eliminate the potential for snagging in tight quarters typical of climbing, ski-mountaineering and backcountry hiking.
