Whether you're ascending a mountain peak, embarking on a fast-paced trail run, or cycling through varied terrain, this pack moves with your body thanks to its AirScape backpanel and continuous-wrap harness and hipbelt.

Cyclists will appreciate the LidLock bike helmet attachment, keeping your helmet secure when off the bike. Skiers can utilize the tuck-away ice axe attachment for technical sections.
The versatile pocketing on the harness, hipbelt, and front panel means your water bottle, snacks, phone, or map are always within easy reach. The dual-zippered panel access makes it simple to get to your main gear without rummaging, while the internal key clip prevents misplacing small essentials. This pack is truly a multi-sport companion designed for efficiency and comfort on shorter, fast-moving adventures.
Adjust Torso Length (if applicable): Ensure the pack sits correctly on your hips, with the hipbelt padding centered. While the Tempest 22L is a fixed torso length, proper strap adjustment is key.
Fit the Hipbelt: Fasten the hipbelt snugly around your hips, ensuring most of the pack's weight rests on your pelvis.
Adjust Shoulder Straps: Pull the shoulder straps down and back until they feel snug but not restrictive. They should hug your shoulders without gapping.
Engage Sternum Strap: Fasten the sternum strap across your chest and adjust its height and tension for comfort. This helps distribute the load.
Utilize Load Lifters (if present): Small straps connecting the top of the shoulder straps to the pack body. Tighten these to pull the pack closer to your body, enhancing stability.
Hydration Reservoir: The pack is compatible with a hydration reservoir (sold separately) for on-the-go hydration.
Trekking Poles: Stow-on-the-Go attachment allows for convenient carrying.
Ice Axe: Tuck-away attachment with bungee tie-off secures a single ice axe.
Bike Helmets: LidLock attachment provides a secure external carrying option.
Cleaning: Hand wash with a mild soap and cold water. Avoid harsh detergents or bleach. For stubborn dirt, use a soft brush.
Drying: Hang the pack to air dry completely in a shaded, well-ventilated area. Do not use a machine dryer.
Storage: Store your pack in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight when not in use. Ensure it is empty and clean.
Maintenance: Regularly check zippers, buckles, and straps for wear and tear. Repair minor issues promptly to prolong the pack's life.
