Our Take

When heading out for a quick weekend climb or flying to a fast-paced alpine objective, the Black Hole 40L is our go-to luggage. It fits perfectly in overhead bins and offers the exact same bombproof, weather-resistant protection as its larger expedition siblings. The backpack straps keep your hands free for hauling rope bags or navigating busy terminals.

Straight From The Source

Why We Love It

Our Philosophy

We Simplify Outfitting

Whittaker Mountaineering was born out of the need for RMI to make sure their clients had the appropriate gear to get to the top of Mt. Rainier safely. After decades of trying, reviewing, arguing-over, and recommending gear, we can’t help but know what we’re doing by this point. We know what works, we know what doesn’t, and we use that expertise to stock our store. 

Who are these guys?

Patagonia

We stock Patagonia because they prove that performance and responsibility are not mutually exclusive. For decades, they have been the conscience of the outdoor industry, but more importantly for our customers, they build gear that simply works. From their legendary Regulator fleece to their bombproof shells, Patagonia equipment is a staple in our packs because it survives the abuse of the alpine environment season after season—and it’s all backed by their Ironclad Guarantee.
