bergan - / ˈbɜːɡən / -
noun
A pack for stowing gear and carried on the back using shoulder straps and often a hip belt. In the context of FreeRide this allows you to carry the FreeRide Essentials for your time on the mountain. At a minimum, shovel and probe but ideally a bladder pack. The longer the time spent in FreeRide Terrain the more equipment one needs to carry, it's for this reason that fit becomes increasingly important. The inclusion of a safety whistle on the chest strap is ideal.
\\ How is that new bergan working out? Does it have a dedicated pocket for your shovel & probe?
