Why We Like The Black Diamond 22L Backpack
For unassisted ultras that take us into rugged alpine conditions, we stride out with the Black Diamond Distance 22L Backpack. The daypack capacity, Z-pole sleeves, and ice axe storage ensure we can carry all the fuel, layers, and tools we need to tackle harsh, varying conditions, while the vest-style suspension, dual sternum straps, and side compression minimize bounce and sway when picking up the pace or scrambling up near-vert sections. Plus, the women's-specific fit and stitch-free shoulder-strap edges promise a snug, low-bulk, and low-friction fit.

The perfect bag for scrambling
The perfect bag for scrambling up mountains! The two pouches on the straps are perfect for bear spray, water, or easy access to your phone for those photos you can't miss. 22L is all you need, and it packs down really well for when it's more than you need. My new favorite backpack.

Amazing Pack!!!
I bought this pack so I could run the Camino and it was fantastic! The running/regular pack was all I needed and there was plenty of room in the straps for all of my snacks. I had the lightest and best pack on the Camino!

Light and Super Efficient
Light as a feather with lots of space. Also, lots of super fantastic pockets. I can easily fit my cell phone in them and lots of other stuff.

Perfect Daypack
Bought this daypack for my girlfriend. She’s always complained about chest straps not fitting her larger chest, and the way this one is designed with the double straps has fixed that problem. On top of that, this pack is just great quality and great for little day hikes or climbing. Thanks BD!

The Pack that goes the Distance
I purchased the men's version of this pack for my husband and immediately was immensely jealous. I have owned distance packs in the past, but none came with the bottles in the front, a place for poles, ice axes and many accessible pockets to carry my gear. I bought mine 2 days after my husbands arrived. I wore this on my adventure to climb Gannett Peak and loved it. Looking forward to taking it to many more adventures around the globe.

The new era of packs
Great multipurpose pack. My husband purchased this for me after buying one for himself and loving it. We have used them on 14ers with our kids and on long runs. Really comfortable and perfect size for an all day adventure.

Very light and comfortable
I'm enjoying the backpack, special to be pretty light and have very nice pockets. The system to care ice axe it's pretty nice and smart. The only detail I'm missing it's a hip belt.

Great pack but careful with sizing
Love my new pack. It is my third BD pack as I use them for different distances and purposes. I like the new straps and fit, however due to reviews saying they fit small I bought the medium and should have bought small. I would say they for true to size. For reference I am 5"3 and 125 lbs.

I love this pack / runs small
I ordered this as a daypack for a multi-day run/trek and it works great. I initially ordered a medium (I'm 5'8'' 130 lbs) and it was too tight for me when packed full, so I ordered the large. It is perfectly snug with my gear in the back and soft water bottles in the arm strap holders.
