The author said that the CiloGear 30:30 backpack is basically an improved version of the CiloGear 45-liter pack pictured here in Patagonia in 2012, loaded with enough gear to go alpine style on Mate, Porro y Todo lo Demas (6c [5.11b], 900m) on the North Pillar of Fitz Roy (3375m), which looms in the background.
