Black Diamond Distance 15

The Distance 15 is a hybrid pack that blends running-vest technology with a rucksack design, offering ample space and features for carrying alpine gear while moving swiftly in the mountains. Constructed from UHMWP 10x Ripstop Yarns, the same material used in the BD Ultralight Camalot tape, the pack is exceptionally strong yet lightweight, capable of floating on water. The shoulder strap edge binding is fully taped, enhancing comfort, movement, and reducing weight.

Featuring adjustable, elastic-cording side compression systems, the Distance 15 ensures the pack remains secure and stable during running or climbing. It includes dual flask pockets, a pocket for stashing wind shells, and a large main opening with a stash pocket for essentials. The pack also boasts a mesh divider wall for a water bladder, dual piolet/ice axe holsters, and dual Z-Pole quiver sleeves for trekking poles. Dual front stretch pockets provide easy access to nutrition.
