Snow-specific 25L pack with streamlined carry, avy tool storage, and board carry for sidecountry laps and day tours.
The Burton AK Sidehill 25L Backpack 2026 is a low-profile panel-loading pack purpose-built for backcountry and sidecountry missions. A wide-access main compartment with back panel entry makes it easy to reach layers, food, and gear without unloading everything, while a dedicated front snow tools pocket keeps shovel and probe organised and ready. Inside you get a hydration-compatible sleeve and a fleece-lined goggle pocket, and outside the pack adds built-in helmet carry so you can free up space when you are skinning or bootpacking. A-frame and vertical board carry options, along with pole and ice axe attachment points, let you dial in different carry setups, and the snow-shedding back panel, ergonomic shoulder straps, and hip belt keep the load stable and comfortable on the climb and the ride out.
