Dedicated durable and designed for ice cragging mixed ascents and cold-weather expeditions the Black Diamond Mission pack is their toughest alpine pack. Featuring an updated BD X-rip 420d fabric with UTS coating these packs are now ultra-durable to withstand season after season of mountain abuse. These packs also provide a balanced carry thanks to its SwingArm shoulder straps and fully strippable waistbelt lid and frame-sheet. The new custom metal dogbone ice tool attachment provides secure attachment for technical ice tools and mountaineering axes while a front crampon pouch and a tuck-away rope strap secure gear to the outside. Finally a drawcord skirt provides a second defense against spindrift and light precip.
