Poacher 14L Backpack - Black FAQ
Can I add back protection to this pack?
Yes, the Poacher 14L is DK Impact Spine Protector compatible (sold separately), so you can slot in a back protector without needing a different pack. The molded back panel is designed to accommodate it while still shedding snow on wet days.
How durable is this pack for daily resort use?
It's built from 100% recycled high-density nylon, a heavier-denier fabric chosen for abrasion resistance against chairlifts, rocks, and repeated loading. The snow-shedding molded back panel also resists soaking through on wet or slushy days, keeping the pack from adding extra weight.
Can this pack carry my snowboard or splitboard?
Yes, it has vertical snowboard carry and a diagonal ski/splitboard carry option, so you can strap your board on for the hike up or carry skis and poles diagonally. Front helmet attachment loops let you clip a helmet externally without using main compartment space.
Will my water freeze if I use a hydration bladder in this pack?
The main compartment is two-way radio handset or insulated hydration compatible, meaning it's built to take an insulated bladder sleeve that slows freezing in cold conditions. An oversized fleece-lined goggle pocket keeps your goggles from fogging or scratching on the same trip.
How big is this pack, and will it fit my gear?
The Poacher 14L measures 55 x 35 cm, with a dedicated snow tools/shovel pocket with sleeves for your shovel and probe. A 38 mm webbing belt with hip wings and a rescue whistle on the sternum strap round out the safety and stability setup for day trips.
