Made of durable, waterproof fabric, the Black Diamond Creek 50 Pack has a top loading design with a drawcord skirt and an integrated, stowable rope strap. With padded shoulder straps, dual-density hip belt, and thermoformed back panel, you approach might be rough, but at least your pack will be comfortable. When it's time to go vertical, you can stow the shoulder straps, remove the waist belt and used the two top grab handles as double haul points.
