The Mile High Mountaineering Colfax lets you keep the dream alive even when you're miles from the backcountry. It's got the tough CORDURA ripstop fabric look that you'll find on all of MHM's technical packs, but it's organized to carry a laptop, books and papers. The Colfax can be carried as a backpack or, if you're feeling a little more hipster, you can reconfigure the straps into a messenger bag. Just don't forget to put on your beanie, thick rimmed glasses, and belt-loop caribiner if you decide to go that route.
