The Blue Ice Stache 90L is the biggest of Blue Ice's expedition alpine packs, made for the longest objectives. It carries big loads comfortably over multi-day approaches, then strips back by roughly 200g when it is time to move fast for the summit.

It is built from the same UV-resistant, PFC-free 210D Robic ripstop as the rest of the Stache range, and adds a removable lid that doubles as a basecamp case, an internal hydration or O2-cylinder pouch, A-frame ski carry and a removable spring-steel frame, all in a one-size back length. Choose the Stache 90 when the approach runs to days rather than hours and the load has to match.
