In the middle of the Ascendor range, the Ascendor 35:40 is ideal for fully loaded days or routes that involve an overnight bivi. It’s a lidded pack with zipped side entry for quick access to kit and dedicated lower ski loops for carrying skis in an A-frame.
Built with multiple gear attachment points and features, from double ice axe carry to water bladder compatibility, it’s the ultimate multi-season mountain pack. Weight has been kept to a minimum with lightweight features, many of which are removeable. The spring steel frame and the internal HDPE sheet can be stripped out so you can customise the weight, rigidity and fit of the pack depending on your day’s objective. The hip belt can also be personalised, with its removeable webbing and padding for days when you’re moving ultralight.
Close-fitting and designed to allow you to move freely over demanding terrain, the Ascendor 35:40 has a snow shedding, moulded back panel and side compression straps to cinch your gear secure. Easy to open and secure shut with a strong metal hook or remove the top lid completely on lighter weight days and fasten with the large compression flap. This is designed to pull the pack weight close towards your body to greatly improve the carry. It also doubles as a rope strap and protects your gear at the top of the pack from the weather when the lid is off.
When it comes to the Ascendor 35:40, all bases are covered. Cleverly designed, multi-functional and comfortable, it’s a great choice for ambitious mountain adventures.
