Go Bigger. Stay Safer.
Designed for long backcountry missions, multi-day tours, and professional-grade terrain, the Backcountry Access Float E2-45 Avalanche Airbag Backpack is the largest and burliest pack in Backcountry Access’s E2 lineup. It’s built around the Alpride E2 supercapacitor system—a next-gen electronic airbag engine that’s 40% smaller and 11% lighter than its predecessor, making it easier than ever to carry the gear you need without extra bulk. With a max 45L of internal volume, top-loading access, and expandable roll-top design, the Float E2-45 offers versatile storage, while the dedicated avalanche tool compartment, A-frame and diagonal ski carry, and vertical snowboard straps ensure you’re ready for any alpine adventure.
