We weren’t kidding when we said these gifts were perfect for skiers and snowboaders. The newly redesigned SnoBlast™ winter pack is protected by Snow Shield™ materials to keep essentials dry the entire day on the mountain. There’s plenty of room for lunch and extra layers (20L cargo capacity), with both top and side openings for easy access while on the move, or on the lift.
The included 2L Crux® reservoir means water breaks can happen anywhere, anytime, without ever slowing down. And best of all, the Therminator™ harness keeps the drinking tube insulated and safely tucked away, so water stays water instead of becoming ice.
What makes the Zoid so lift-friendly? First off, the size. As our smallest snow pack, the Zoid is anything but bulky. So it’s a sleek choice for lift rides from run to run. But there’s more: Zoid includes the Therminator harness and SnowShield materials to protect their pack—and their water—from the elements. A helmet attachment loop for a safer ride. Front zip pocket to keep essentials secure. And a harness designed to easily swing the pack around on the lift. Includes a 2L Crux hydration reservoir so they can sip, shred, and carve all day.
P.S. Snowshoers, hikers, and fans of fat biking will love this winter pack too!
Forget après-ski. With MultiBev they can enjoy an après-anywhere. As far as drinkware goes, this 2-in-1 water bottle and detachable travel cup has it all. A 22 oz bottle and a 16 oz cup in one convenient product means hydration and coffee (or cocktails) can go hand-in-hand—literally.
Insulated stainless steel construction keeps drinks at the perfect temp the entire day. Fits easily in their pack for quick and cozy sipping on the slopes. Strong and durable enough to go literally anywhere. Plus it’s leakproof, sweatproof, slip and splash resistant, easy to carry, and fits in most cup holders. You'll probably want to grab one of these for yourself, while you’re at it.
Another newly improved item, the Powderhound™ 12 Snowpack is a solid all-weather option for winter adventure seekers. Whether ski & snowboard season means a day pass or a season pass, this pack is ready for it. Includes all the winter-ready features of our other snow packs, plus options for strapping skis or a snowboard to the back.
With 12L of storage space and a 2L hydration reservoir included, the Powderhound is an ideal pack for resort days and the occasional sidecountry trip. Designed specifically to be the go-to board and ski carry pack for all-day lift laps and short in-bound boot packs.
When the mountain is calling, Stoaway™ answers. Like a koozie for your hydration reservoir, Stoaway is insulated with 10mm of closed cell foam. With convenient attachment points for turning any pack into an all-season 1.5L hydration system.
The insulated reservoir (plus insulated tube and bite valve cover) is great for XC and backcountry skiing, or other winter adventures. And when it’s back to basecamp, the adjustable carry loop makes it easy to hang from a tree or post. No unnecessary pockets, straps or buckles to get in the way here. Just a cozy outer sleeve to keep water cold all day long, without freezing.
Down the Chute! This sturdy reusable bottle delivers a high flow with no stress and no mess. It’s got an easy carry handle that they can easily loop a finger through or attach a carabiner to. The results are in, and customers love the Chute Mag cap. The screw top features a magnet that holds the lid out of the way during use. Stays leak proof when closed.
Easy to use, easy to clean, easy to carry. And you could basically drop it off a cliff without breaking it. Chute Mag checks all the boxes for an every day, go-anywhere water bottle.
Did you know you can customize this item? For a fun twist on a practical gift, you can put a personalized message, inside joke, or nickname on the Chute Mag (and other select bottles or drinkware). Digital print and laser etching options offer endless possibilities for your image or text on the front, back or both sides of the bottle. Personalize your Chute Mag here or shop all custom options.
For the friend or family member who already has a CamelBak hydration pack, this add-on is the easiest way to winterize it. The tube with insulated thermal sleeve helps prevent freezing in cold weather and helps keep your water cool in warm weather. Alpine runs above the treeline? No problem! Hot days on the trail? We’ve got you covered.
Made specifically for the Crux™ reservoir, the Insulated Tube kit includes a delivery tube, neoprene insulated cover, Big Bite valve, Crux on/off valve and Quick Link connector.
