Big ascents and serious descents need a pack that carries the load well and deploys without hesitation, and the Haldigrat 30 E2 is built for both. It runs on the Alpride E2 electronic airbag system, lightweight and airplane-safe, powered by supercapacitor technology that fires quickly and at high pressure even in freezing conditions, with multiple deployments possible from one charge. A U-frame back and broad hip belt handle load transfer well on all-day missions, and a unique back opening (a Mammut signature on their electronic airbags) gets you into your main compartment fast without unloading skis or a board first.

BUYERS' GUIDE
The back opening is the feature worth pointing out first, it's a Mammut signature on their electronic airbags and it means you can get into your main compartment from behind without unclipping skis or a board off the outside, a real time-saver on a cold transition. This one comes in two back lengths, S/M (43.5 cm) and M/L (48.5 cm), so don't just guess based on your usual pack size, measure your back length if you can, it's what actually determines fit and comfort on a longer day.
The orange detailing inside isn't just styling, it's there to help you find your avalanche kit fast when you're digging under pressure, small thing, real difference in a real situation.
As with any Alpride E2 pack, check your charge level before heading out, and if you're planning to fly with it, ask us about the travel documentation, Mammut supplies a dedicated info sheet for exactly that.
