{"product_id":"deuter-guide-lite-24","title":"Guide Lite 24","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe Deuter Guide Lite 24 is a stripped-down mountaineering pack for the approach, the climb and the walk off. Rope on the top, axes on the sides, and a body tough enough to drag up a chimney, at a weight you barely notice on a long route.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h5\" style=\"margin:32px 0 8px;\"\u003eWho it's for\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eClimbers and alpinists on single-day routes: multi-pitch in the Blue Mountains or at Frog Buttress, a winter gully on the Main Range, or a glaciated day in New Zealand's Southern Alps. Deuter rate it five out of five for climbing and mountaineering, and the recommended 4-8 kg load is rack, water, food, a belay jacket and a first aid kit.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h5\" style=\"margin:32px 0 8px;\"\u003eCapacity, and what actually fits\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e24 litres holds a light rack, a puffy and shell, lunch, a 3 L bladder and a head torch inside, with the rope coiled under the strap on top. Two ice axes clip to the sides and a helmet sits in the mesh holder on the front. The pack measures 59 x 30 x 24 cm, tall and narrow so it stays out of the way of your arms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h5\" style=\"margin:32px 0 8px;\"\u003eHow it carries\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Alpine back has padded panels with ventilation channels covered in breathable mesh, and a close, body-hugging shape that keeps the load still when you are balancing on small holds. ActiveFit shoulder straps and stabiliser straps hold it tight, and side compression straps pull the load in towards your centre of gravity. The slimline waist belt adjusts and comes off entirely, so it will not fight with a harness.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h5\" style=\"margin:32px 0 8px;\"\u003eFitting it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe Guide Lite 24 comes in one size for back lengths of 44-54 cm, which Deuter match to climbers around 170-195 cm tall. Fit it over the layers you will climb in, with a harness on, and make sure you can still reach the gear loops and look up without the lid hitting your helmet.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h5\" style=\"margin:32px 0 8px;\"\u003eAccess and organisation\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe main compartment closes with a drawcord under a flap, quick to open with gloves on and easy to stuff even when full. A zipped top pocket holds the topo and snacks, a soft flask pouch and cell phone pocket ride on the shoulder straps, and there is a wet compartment inside, a key clip and a glasses stow.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDrawcord and flap top closure; zipped top pocket\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eStowable rope strap; ice axe attachment on both sides\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDetachable mesh helmet holder included\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSoft flask pouch and cell phone pocket on the shoulder straps\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eAdjustable, detachable waist belt for use with a harness\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eHydration compatible, up to 3 L\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h5\" style=\"margin:32px 0 8px;\"\u003eWeight\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e670 g for 24 litres with full climbing carry and a padded back. Light enough to clip to your harness and haul, and light enough that it is not the reason you are slow on the approach.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2 class=\"h5\" style=\"margin:32px 0 8px;\"\u003eLooking after it\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe body is 210D recycled polyamide and recycled polyester ripstop, abrasion resistant against rock, with a DWR finish made without intentionally added PFAS, and the pack is bluepass and Green Button certified. Deuter back it with a 2-year warranty.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Deuter","offers":[{"title":"Black","offer_id":67692552749165,"sku":"10516510001OS","price":255.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true},{"title":"Poppy Crimson","offer_id":67692552781933,"sku":"10516512466OS","price":255.95,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0253\/1708\/1197\/files\/guide-lite-24-5-black-3774688047f99d11a4575e9230da966d.jpg?v=1792533694","url":"https:\/\/ozbackcountry.com.au\/products\/deuter-guide-lite-24","provider":"Oz Backcountry","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
