Initial Ascent Pack System

Founder · Jun 5, 2020

Just wanted to welcome a NEW sponsor here on the site, Initial Ascent, a backpack manufacturer based in Idaho who strives to provide an innovative, quality, durable, functional and comfortable pack system.

If any of you are in the market for a new pack this year, please take a look at what the guys at Initial Ascent have produced. I haven't had the chance to test a pack out, but I really like the fact that the bags available are interchangeable.
