ASPECT 32
Hyperlite Mountain Gear is not about bells and whistles, nonessential features, or the latest trending colors. We manufacture stripped down, high performance gear that’s been dialed in to meet, in as minimalist a manner as possible, the exacting requirements of the people who use it.
IT SKIS JUST LIKE YOU DO
The Aspect 32 ski touring day pack is built to last a lifetime with super light but super tough Fully Woven Dyneema to thwart any threats from sharp ski edges or harsh terrain. And with its close-to-body fit and narrow profile, you’ll move through the mountains unencumbered, free to pursue new lines and add to your list of “Best Days Ever.”
WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW
Periodically check your backpack fabric, pockets, straps, clips, and adjusters for signs of stress or tears and repair any damage before continued use.
The ASPECT 32 is an ultralight pack designed for backcountry ski touring day missions.
The ASPECT 32 is NOT a dry bag. Take precautions to prevent gear from getting wet.
Take the time on a dry, sunny day to spot-clean any areas that need it. A soft damp cloth and a mild soap (non-detergent and non-oil based soaps work well, do not bleach). Air-dry your pack by leaving it out to hang-dry. Make sure your pack is completely dry before long term storage.

Store your pack in a dry place.

BEST PRACTICES
- Place only avalanche rescue equipment in the dedicated avalanche rescue equipment pocket.
- Keep quick grab items closer to the top of the bag or near the side zipper entry (water bottles, shell jacket, insulating layer).
SAFETY
- This backpack is not a toy. To prevent the danger of choking or suffocation, keep this bag away from babies and children.
- This backpack is not fireproof. Keep your bag away from all open flames and heat sources to prevent the possibility of melting or burns from sparks and falling embers.
- Familiarize yourself with the different adjustments to maximize comfort, so you can stay focused on your next adventure.
