The ARVA Ride 30+ is a proper backcountry day pack with enough room for longer tours, sidecountry laps, splitboard missions, and days where you need more than the bare minimum. The expandable roll-top design gives you 30L to 38L of volume, so it can run clean and compact when you are travelling light, then open up when you need extra layers, food, water, skins, or safety gear.
Access is a big part of the appeal here. You can get into the main compartment from the roll-top or through the full back opening, which makes it much easier to reach gear without unloading the whole pack. It also has a dedicated external safety pocket, integrated helmet holder, removable waist belt, hydration compatibility, ski and snowboard carry, and recycled PFC-free fabrics, giving it a strong mix of mountain function and everyday versatility.
