Mammut Nirvana 35 Backpack

The Mammut Nirvana 35 is a ski pack first, and that shows in how everything is organized. The 35-liter capacity gives you plenty of room for extra layers, food, water, and longer-day essentials, while a dedicated front compartment keeps your shovel and probe organized and easy to reach.

Full rear-zip access is a particularly nice touch, letting you open up the main compartment without digging through everything from the top. Skis can be carried diagonally or A-frame, there’s a dedicated snowboard attachment, and an integrated helmet carrier keeps your helmet out of the pack on the way up.

Add hydration compatibility, ice-tool and pole attachments, an SOS label, and compatibility with Mammut’s optional back protector, and the Nirvana 35 is ready for everything from lift-accessed freeriding to full days of touring.
