FS: Osprey Switch 40 + 5

Osprey Switch 40 + 5

Used ~ 8 or 9 times. Great Shape. Paid $160, asking $90.

Color: Red
Size: Med

I've been struggling with the idea of selling this pack. I really like it, but have my eye on something new.

Osprey's description of pack below. Can send actual pictures if interested.

The Switch 40+5 features backside panel entry and a separate snow safety gear compartment with organizers on the front side. A top access goggle compartment, front slash pocket and attitude-maintenance pocket on the hip belt keep the rest of your snow essentials organized. Versatile options for carrying your snow locomotion gear abound with foam sidewall crescents for A-framing skis, reinforced abrasion patches underneath the front compression wings for vertical snowboard carry and reinforced wear points for hauling your board horizontally. A stowable loop allows for diagonal ski carry as well.

FEATURES

AquaSource hydration/torso-adjustable harness is also separate minipack!

Great pack! It's my go-to pack for my BC forays on skis AND snowshoes.

Worth every cent I think.

I am keeping my eye out for something larger with similar features.

Something that will accommodate me for several nights in the backcountry, 4500cu maybe.
