Guide 45+ by Deuter

Bring all the hardware you need for rock routes, ice pitches, or ski tours. The Guide is a stout companion on rough outings. Slim but far from frail, it blends a clean, body-hugging fit with construction that shrugs off the abuse of alpine travel. For lightweight missions, the hipbelt, frame, and foam mat can be stripped off to make it sleeker.
