Black Diamond Distance 15 Backpack

Designed for long days in challenging alpine environments, whether running, climbing, or hiking. The Distance 15L backpack features a powerful, vest-like carrying system while being an ultralight pack that holds just enough gear for a mountain trip. The revamped Distance 15L blurs the lines between running and climbing and is built for long days in the mountains to overcome obstacles. The hybrid design of the Distance 15 combines the carrying system of a running vest with the technology of a lightweight mountain backpack for added capacity. The backpack is made with BD SETT (Stitchless Edge Taping Technology) to enhance fit, comfort, and durability. The Distance 15 has a barely noticeable edge binding and a soft, breathable diamond mesh construction for comfortable wear against the skin. The soft flask holders improve safety, while additional front pockets provide secure storage. The Distance 15 is equipped with our Z-Pole carrying system for quick readiness and two attachment options for ice axes.
