I'm Abigail Scott, an author, adventurer, and mother of three. When I'm not navigating the beautiful chaos of motherhood, you can find me tackling the turbulent waters as a professional whitewater kayaker or scaling impressive rock faces as a climbing guide. The rush of adrenaline, whether from kayaking or climbing, is a feeling I cherish deeply. But the thrill doesn't stop there; I capture the breathtaking allure of nature through my lens as a professional photographer. And when I'm not submerged in the wild, my software engineering skills amplify my outdoor pursuits, allowing me to harness technology in unique ways. Through my writings, whether articles or blog posts, I share not just my adventures but my heart, hoping to spark a flame of inspiration in others to break boundaries and experience the world's wonders.

Description

The Heli 12L Backpack

When it comes to carrying all your essentials while maintaining balance during your ride, the Heli 12L Backpack from Dakine is the perfect choice. Unlike big, bulky packs, this backpack offers a low-profile design that is ideal for resort riding, cat skiing, and heli trips.

Notable features include an external shovel sleeve for convenient storage, and dividers in the main compartment that can hold a probe and shovel handle. The backpack also includes an insulated sleeve for a hydration bladder, with enough space left to accommodate an extra layer and a beanie. Additionally, a fleece-lined goggle pocket ensures that you can keep an extra pair of lenses handy in case of changing light conditions. Plus, when you need to trek back up the mountain, the Heli 12L Backpack allows you to carry skis diagonally and a snowboard vertically, leaving your hands free for other important activities.
