Derived from the rope bag - used by true rock climbers for easy storage of rock climbing ropers – the Climb Pack from Epperson Mountaineering uses the cylindrical shape similar to the original design. Using Mino Nakanishi’s experiences in climbing, the backpack led to the addition of the distinct and easy-to-use carabiner front closure, now something that defines the pack. Using American-made components, the pack is premium in its construction, making them as tough as the climbers using them.
