MOUNTAINSMITH PHOENIX BACKPACK (RECYCLED)

The Phoenix Backpack by Mountainsmith is a fully recycled alpine pack and is available for all of you backpackers seeking a 'green' alternative.  Designed and constructed with all sustainable and recycled materials, and still offers the ultimate in engineering for oversized loads and ambitious, lengthy adventures. 

The Phoenix is designed to carry heavy loads, so its ultra comfortable Load Dispersion Technology allows for weight to be effectively distributed and enables freedom of movement while navigating through talus fields or steep terrain.  Hydration compatible with a single exit port and plenty of features that will keep you organized while on your trip .  Allowing you to bring your skis, snowboard, ice axes, trekking poles, and even a top compression strap for climbing ropes.

A pivoting waistbelt with dual density foam keeps your pack stable while moving and provides extra comfort in a high weight area.
