Congratulations to Joe Puryear and David Gottlieb on their success on the hithertofore unclimbed Jobo Rinzang in Nepal. They won the 2009 Spitzer Cutting Edge Award from the American Alpine Club!

Congratulations to Lakpa Rita Sherpa for being the first Sherpa to climb the Seven Summits! We wish him the best with his new NWD 60L WorkSack out on Everest this season.

The Alpinist Mountain Standard Award Winning 60L packs are "Perfection" in the words of the reviewer!

CiloGear makes the best alpine climbing packs in the world. From Kelly Cordes to Maxime Turgeon to Steve House, many of the best alpinists in the world agree enough to buy our packs.

AMGA and UIAGM guides such as John Race of Mountain School, Marty Molitaris of Alpine Endeavors and many other excellent guide companies buy, use and recommend CiloGear WorkSacks for climbs from their local crag to Cho Oyu and Everest to Carstens Pyramid and Denali.

CiloGear produces almost all of our products to order. It generally takes two to three days to get a pack built once we receive your order.

The most popular Dyneemaź packs are the 30L, 45L, but the 60L is an Everest standard. As these packs are all made to order, there is a commensurate delay and sales of Dyneemaź are final sales. Our new NonWoven Dyneemaź (NWD)WorkSacks are available now. The NWD WorkSacks weigh about 20% less than the Woven Dyneema packs. They're the made for the hardest routes or for through hiking. They are incredibly robust, but they are a little different...

We will be releasing our new Wally line up of cragging backpacks in early March. Stay tuned...

Follow the expeditions of people using CiloGear packs on our blog! From Antartica to Aconcagua, from Colorado to Canada, if you tell us about it, we post about your trip.

We no longer ship any packs with Oral Straps. They are available by special order, but we supply all packs with side release buckle straps instead.
