This backcountry ski pack comes complete with a lightweight Speed Rescue shovel and a 230 cm probe making the
K2 Snowboarding Pilchuck Backcountry Kit an essential for all skiers and boarders who venture beyond the ski area boundary. The minimalist 11 liter Pilchuk pack is large enough for a layer and a sandwich—the optimal sized for days in the sidecountry, and heli-skiing/snow cat tours. If you plan to venture off piste, you'll need an avalanche beacon around your neck, the K2 Snowboarding Pilchuck Backcountry Kit on your back, and the requisite training to properly use these tools.
