Free Rider 20 S
$144.00
Description

  The Ortovox Free Rider 20 S fits extra snugly against the back when freeriding in any terrain – just like a second skin This is primarily down to the flat, elasticated Clasp Flex Belt which provides control in every situation as well as reliable support. The soft back pads hug the back perfectly without restricting the movements of the spine. On the inside, the back of the backpack can be fitted with the Clasp Spine Protector (sold separately). This spine protector is certified to motorcycle standards and can be purchased separately. It slides easily into a separate inner pocket. The focus here is both on your safety and on the environment: This freeriding backpack is completely PFC-free and, thanks to the use of recycled polyester, also climate-neutral.

  In order to optimally adjust the pack while on the go, it can be quickly compressed using the integrated side straps. When it comes to rappelling into steep gullies or short walking passages, the pack has all the necessary attachment options for skis, an ice axe or rope, not to mention the tried-and-tested helmet net, emergency card and hydration system compatibility. All the features are well stowed away on the outside to prevent them catching, even when in difficult terrain.

  This compact freeriding backpack also offers enough space for climbing skins and ski crampons, ensuring extra flexibility out on the mountain. Emergency equipment can be neatly stowed away and kept at hand in a separate safety compartment, while all other items in the main compartment are accessible via front or back access. The Free Rider 20 S is a versatile companion for maximum flexibility and freedom of movement on skis.

When National Parks Laid Off Rangers, This Company Started Hiring
  On February 14, 2025, the National Park Service fired around 1,000 probationary employees in conjunction with a White House effort to reduce the federal workforce. Although a spate of court orders eventually reversed many of the layoffs and reinstated probationary employees to their jobs, roughly five weeks elapsed between the initial firing and eventual rehiring mandate. Those intervening weeks were...

What to Do When Your Partner’s on a Big Adventure—And You’re The One Left Behind
  When Bre Kanak, an art teacher in northern Wisconsin, was invited to join a nine-day sea expedition to Antarctica, her husband Dan stayed home to watch their snakes and chickens. He felt a bit of FOMO, he admits, but mostly he was excited for her—especially because he got to follow along vicariously. Dan remembers keeping a close eye on Antarctic...
Looking for a Third Place? Get Outside
  Two summers ago, I went shopping for a mountain bike group ride. I’d just moved to the Lake Tahoe area, and everywhere else I’d lived, races and group rides were how I’d made friends. I knew that if I could find a good weekly ride, I would find my new community.   The first ride I checked out had only three...

America’s First National Park City
  Chattanooga is not like other cities. While some towns can boast about being close to the outdoors, adventure is seamlessly woven through the fabric of this city, from the Tennessee River that wraps around downtown to the towering cliffs and lush mountains that rise from the edge of its neighborhoods.   “A lot of cities are gateways to the outdoors, but...
Is Conservation Only for the One Percent?
  Dear Sundog,   I’m a biologist and land conservationist who has spent the last two decades working with farmers and ranchers to keep their land and way of life intact. I walk their property looking for habitats that might harbor rare plants and threatened wildlife. If the property meets certain ecological criteria, the owner can place the land under “conservation easement,”...
As America’s Best Idea, Our National Parks Are Precious. Here’s Why.
  What’s your favorite national park? After two decades as a journalist with a specialty in outdoor recreation, that’s the question I am most often asked. I’ve had the pleasure of visiting most of the big ones. I’ve even led trips to Yosemite, Grand Canyon, Yellowstone, Zion, and Denali as a professional guide, and, most recently, as a national park expert...
