Black Diamond Beta Light 30

The Black Diamond Beta Light 30 is a frameless 30-liter pack built for fast overnight missions and thru-hiking, where every gram is negotiated. A running-vest-style harness replaces a conventional back panel, and together with the Challenge Sailcloth UltraWeave 200d (Ultra 200 PE) body it keeps total weight to 695 g. The roll-top closure lets you compress volume to the load, though the stated 18 kg max capacity points this pack toward light loads rather than a fully loaded weekend kit. The hipbelt is unpadded webbing, removable for anyone who doesn't need it on shorter stretches. There are no load lifters, a typical trade-off at this weight - expect less stability under a full load than a stayed pack would give. Two side pockets and hydration compatibility cover the basics; there's no front pocket and no integrated rain cover. This is a pack for hikers running dialed-in ultralight kits who want to stay under 700 g and are willing to trade some carrying comfort and capacity for it.
