Deuter Speed Lite SL 30L Backpack – Women’s

As one of the larger options of Deuter’s lightest day pack options, the Women’s Speed Lite 30L SL Backpack is made for conquering long days and steep treks. Weighing less than two pounds, it still holds enough room for layers, lunch, and water, but won’t slow you down when you’ve got your site set on multiple peaks and need to move swiftly. Zippered stash pockets on the waist belt keep your phone or lip balm close at hand, while the zippered lid offers a spot to keep your lunch so it doesn’t get crushed. A hydration sleeve makes it easy to sip from your 3 liter bladder without pausing to dig in your bag, leaving room in the two side stretch pockets for a summit beer or two.

If the backbone of the Speed Lite is the tensioned Delrin U-Frame, then the circulation system is the Lite Air back panel. It offers minimalist padding without detracting from stability, and cool ventilation on warm days. The padded shoulder straps and breathable waist belt keep you comfortable on longer treks, and both can be adjusted for carrying larger loads.

Osprey Packs Kresta 30L Backpack – Women’s

As most women know, backpacks are often the unfortunate victim of the pink-and-shrink laser beam. However, designers over at Osprey heard the call for a functional, women-specific touring backpack, and answered with the Kresta 30 Backpack. And in typical Osprey fashion, the Kresta has just the right amount of features necessary for a day of touring in the alpine without skimping on the overall fit or functionality.

More specifically, this pack is fashioned with a women-specific Light Wire suspension system that when combined with the padded help belt and stabilization straps, provide a comfortable and pressure-free haul. The thermoformed, contoured back panel sheds snow easily, and ultimately reduces the build-up of frozen precipitation on your backside. Not to mention, a deployable helmet net makes carrying your helmet a breeze, and the tuck-away ice tool loop ensures you’re able to haul technical tools without worrying about losing them en route.

In keeping with its versatile construction, the Kresta boasts a horizontal snowboarding carrying feature, or if you’re of the dual-planked nature, it also touts an A-frame or diagonal ski carrying design. Though, perhaps most importantly, the Kresta has a J-shaped avalanche gear compartment, complete with dry pocket, so you’re not only able to access your safety gear in a flash, but you’re also able to separate your sensitive avy gear from wet skins or damp clothing. A back panel entry system enables you quick access to snacks or extra layers, and all of the Kresta’s zipper pulls, as well as buckles, are glove and mitten friendly.

Specifically, the Kresta 20 is fashioned with a women-specific, Light Wire suspension system that when combined with the padded help belt and stabilization straps, provide a comfortable and pressure-free haul. Additionally, the thermoformed, contoured back panel sheds snow easily, and ultimately reduces the build-up of frozen precipitation. A dual-position, deployable helmet net makes carrying your melon-protector easy (when it’s not in use).

AirContact Trail uses contoured shoulder straps with a mesh lining, a ventilation channel between the pack padding, breathable foam back pads, and anatomically-formed hip fins to make heavy loads comfortable to carry. The SL Women’s Fit System has soft edges to the straps (which are shorter and narrower), smaller buckles, curved west belt wings, and shorter-length suspension system. Plenty of pockets organize your gear, and Deuter even added a wet/dry pocket to help separate your wet or dirty gear from the rest of your stuff.

Large enough to fit a rack and rope comfortably, or a lightweight overnight set up, this pack is the perfect all-in-one day pack. The Flexion lightweight and ultra-thin shoulder system contours to your body and evens out the weight, while the TriShield nylon construction is abrasion-resistant and designed for tough environments— both allowing you to swiftly climb over rock fields and under fallen trees with confidence. The AirContour back panel gives you exceptional airflow on longer hikes with a heavier pack, and easily adjusts for a custom fit.

Thule Stir Hiking 35L Backpack – Women’s

Thule’s always been the go-to name for roof racks, hitch racks, and general cargo carrying, but it’s been getting into the technical pack game, and the early results haven’t been too shabby. The new Stir Women’s Hiking Pack, for example, has an innovative top-access design that combines a cinch-down opening, top storm flap, and internal zip to keep all your gear locked down and organized. As impressively, the StormGuard design features a partial hideaway rain cover that teams up with the Stir’s rugged lined bottom to create a waterproof package that’s still usable when it’s covered up.

The Stir is both customizable and well designed due to a sliding back panel to fit different torso sizes and a removable hip belt and sternum strap to give it a more streamlined look for around-town use. A side zipper provides easy access to buried layers, and pockets at the shoulder strap, front, side, and top supply convenient spots to stash your phone, water, rain shell, and snacks. There’s even a dual ice axe/trekking pole carrying system, so you can be prepared if things start to get technical.

Deuter Gravity Motion SL 35L Backpack – Women’s

The Gravity Motion SL 35L Backpack is ready to step in as your go-to climbing daypack. It’s got a low-profile, minimalist design that betrays just how much storage it’s packing, and a comfortable carrying system with a special contoured fit for female climbers. The Gravity suspension system keeps the pack’s load close to your body for greater stability, and features ventilated padding on the back and straps for breathable comfort, as well as a flexible frame that lends structure and support for long approaches. Stretchy zippered side pockets keep climbing shoes and water bottles tucked away but still within easy reach, and gear loops along the front of the pack let you easily lash on anything that can’t fit inside. On the other side of the pack you’ve got back panel entry for easy access that doesn’t require rooting around your pack from the top, letting you access important gear quickly when you need to. Compression straps help pull the load in closer and offer external storage for a waterproof shell or puffy, while a top haul loop makes it easy to lug up after you on all-time multi-pitch climbs.

You also are always prepared with this pack’s raincover that conveniently packs into the pack. The Deuter Shield System is also up for the task of keeping you safe.
