Pizzo dEghen is the wildest and most remote mountain in the Grigne group in the Central Alps above the town of Lecco, the home of Riccardo Cassin. In 1932, Cassin first climbed one of his great routes on the Pizzo dEghen, ascending the huge chimney in the middle of the wall. The Eghen 22 is a tribute to this historic climb, the very kind of adventures ithas been designed for. Elite alpinists and multi-pitch climbers have long been asking usfor a purpose-built pack with the Cassin touch. It is here with the Eghen 22. The Eghen22 is designed for fast and light missions on multi-pitch rock and ice routes. The bottomis constructed from super strong Cordura 500D and the side walls are constructed fromstrong, lightweight PU coated 210D HD Ripstop nylon. Maxed out, the Eghen 22 has 22liters of capacity. When not full, the pack is designed to be compressed so it maintains atrim profile. The frameless back gets some rigidity from the removable 6mm rigid foam padthat doubles as an emergency bivy pad. Other cold weather features include a new fastpull cord closure system and new buckles all designed for effective use with gloves, andstreamlined technical ice tool holders that can be stowed away when not in use. Essentialmulti-pitch climbing features include a removable waist belt, external waterproof pocketsfor the route map, an external rope carrying system that allows the rope to be carried onthe top or bottom of the lid and an external helmet carrying system that stows away whennot in use.
