Tupilak 45+
Ideal for multiday routes or the longest climbing days, this durable, highly weather-resistant yet lightweight climbing pack is optimised for alpine and winter climbing on the steepest lines and biggest faces.
Information
With a 45-litre optimum capacity and custom-developed fabrics and aluminium hardware, the Tupilak 45+ is a lightweight, highly weather-resistant and durable climbing and mountaineering pack ideal for multi-day alpine routes and long climbing days in the most severe winter conditions. Developed through more than 35 prototypes, it’s been used extensively by our team on some of the world’s hardest alpine lines and for dependable day-in day-out use by Guides and instructors.
The Tupilak 45+ uses custom-developed high tenacity PACT™ 300 and 100 R² fabrics throughout. These are lightweight but extremely robust and weather-resistant fabrics, easily repelling snow and withstanding even the most severe mountain conditions. An integrated cowl-lid closure with custom-developed Grappler™ buckle further seals out weather and is easy to use in poor conditions, while a secondary internal roll-top closure provides additional weather protection and keeps wet and dry items separate during multi-day expeditions.
A streamline hourglass shape facilitates packing and offers a more stable carry for both hiking and climbing, while an EVA back panel provides support and improves comfort. Similarly, high-density EVA foam shoulder straps are low-profile to facilitate mobility when climbing, but still offer excellent carrying performance on long walk-ins. Side compression straps with lightweight aluminium buckles improve load stability and can accommodate items such as sleeping mats or even skis. Likewise, aluminium ice axe toggles and bungee cord system offer greater carrying potential. To shed weight for hard ascents or summit pushes, the back panel, hip fins, compression straps, bungee, and ice tool toggles can all be stripped if not required.
A zipped floating pocket for items like head torches and sun cream can be accessed from both outside and inside the bag.
