I own way too many backpacks. It’s not even a conscious thing, I just seem to acquire them. I’ve been given some by friends, found some, but mostly I’ve just bought a bunch over the years. I have a closet that’s nearly full of backpacks of all shapes, sizes, and colours. Some people collect shoes. Some people collect band tees. I guess my vice is bags? What a dork… 
I tend to use a variety of these backpacks, depending on whether I’m doing a weekend road trip, an extended tour, a canoe trip, or on a big snowboard trip. Snowboard backpacks are their own beast, so join me as I simplify that whole category and try to come up with list of the best snowboard backpacks of 2016. <img alt="Best Snowboard Backpacks of 2016" src="http://ws-na.amazon-adsystem.com/widgets/q?_encoding=UTF8&ASIN=B00GT043XK&Format=_SL250_&ID=AsinImage&MarketPlace=US&ServiceVersion=20070822&WS=1&tag=ibaccan-20">
