Peak Light 32 (Fall 2022)
Ortovox
Peak Light 32 (Fall 2022)
$135.00
Description

  Great alpine challenges are calling you this season. Whether on Dent Blanche surrounded by its mighty glaciers or on the protruding Weisshorn in the Valais Alps – the Ortovox Peak Light is THE companion for demanding alpine tours. It is extremely lightweight, technical, and even more functional with the new SWISSWOOL TEC knit back system.

  The Peak Light 32 is Ortovox's alpine lightweight made for demanding alpine tours. This pack is very robust yet incredibly light thanks to the use of the extremely tear- and abrasion-resistant material Nylon 420D Oxford. This Nylon fabric is one of the lightest materials that Ortovox uses for their backpacks. The material is also PU-coated and thus water-resistant.

  The triangular construction of the lid allows for variable adjustment with rope fastening without slippage. The lid is completely removable or storable in the main compartment. When stored in the main compartment, the lid’s zipper can still be easily opened. The lid compartment has two sections. Taped seams make the lid completely waterproof.

  For the Peak Light, Ortovox has concentrated on the important features and dispensed with anything unnecessary. Of course, the Peak Light has all the important features such as a rope and ice axe fixation, load control cords, helmet net, material loops, hip pocket, a map compartment and the circumferential zipper for quickly accessing the main compartment from the front. Safety equipment is held securely inside thanks to the safety attachment. In addition, the standard Ortovox features include an emergency card, chest strap with signal whistle, compression strap, bright interior color, hydration system compatibility and a ski holder.

  These carefully considered features, the low weight and innovative back system make the Peak Light a highly functional alpine tour backpack where doing without means greater functionality.

  WARNING for California customers: This product can expose you to chemicals including dimethylformamide, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer. For more information, go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov

    SWISSWOOL-TEC-KNIT back system
    The SWISSWOOL-TEC-KNIT BACK SYSTEM stands for the innovative synthesis of a TECHNICAL FOAM BACK with HEAT-PRESSED SWISS WOOL covered with a 3D HIGH-TECH KNITTED FABRIC. The wool pads are used in the zones that come into contact with the back, storing large volumes of moisture without feeling wet.

    SCALED DOWN TO REDUCE WEIGHT
    The PEAK LIGHT combines STABILITY, WEAR COMFORT and a LIGHT WEIGHT. The total weight of 1100 g* can be reduced by a further 380 g* by simply removing the TOP, HIP FINS, WIRE FRAME FOR THE BACK and other external fastening options. A minimal 720 grams* of weight thus widens the range of use, from long alpine tours to pitch after alpine pitch.

    * +/- 4% due to production and material fluctuations.

The Cult of the Mountain-Town Weatherman
  On a Sunday afternoon in October, I snuck out for a run. It was tank-top weather when I left my house in downtown Durango, Colorado, and I expected it to hold. I drove north into the mountains, and as I crested a hill 15 minutes in, the sky turned gray and cracked with lightning. The temperature reading in my car...
Real Conservation, No Gimmicks: The Gritty Work of Saving Desert Bighorn Sheep
  Conservation often feels like an abstract concept. Its often something that happens behind the scenes through funding, bureaucracy, and awareness campaigns.

We captured and translocated the 200th bighorn sheep for Conservation Direct and went on to hit number 224.   When I say we,...
What I’ve Learned from 20 Silent Meditation Retreats
  The first time I ever went on a silent meditation retreat, 11 years ago, I thought I had entered the zombie apocalypse.
