Dakine Women's Heli Pro 24L
Best specialized pack for female winter sports enthusiasts.
Not too big and not too small, the Team Women's Heli Pro 24L falls right in the Goldilocks zone of backcountry packs. This seek-and-destroy powder package is big enough, but certainly not too big. Purpose-built snow tool sleeves keep shovel and probe at the ready, a large fleece-lined goggle pocket and deployable helmet carry neatly stow essentials on the go, and a hydration sleeve doubles as laptop storage off the mountain. Designed with a women's specific fit, this versatile pack offers vertical and diagonal ski carry, a horizontal snowboard carry option, and a deployable helmet carry system. Its dimensions are 22.5 x 13.5 x 1.5 inches and it weighs 2.0 lbs.
