Backcountry Pines Microgrid Ultra-Lt Baselayer Balaclava Top - Women's

Ultimate coverage and versatility with the Pines Microgrid Ultra-Lt Baselayer Balaclava Top

"I love that this baselayer is made with hair management in mind so I can focus on the run ahead, instead of what my hair is doing." —Gearhead® Expert Jo

Wicking, warm, and odor-resistant, the Pines Microgrid Ultra-Lt Baselayer Balaclava Top is a winter essential we won't leave for the hill without. We crafted this unique, ultralight baselayer from a stretchy blend of recycled polyester and spandex to keep us moving in warm, dry comfort, and outfitted it with thumbholes and a built-in balaclava hood to bolster our defense against icy conditions.

Hidden balaclava seals in warmth and keeps hair tucked, while thumbholes maintain a smooth, layer-ready fit.

About The Backcountry Brand

Backcountry began in 1996 with two skiers, a stack of avalanche beacons, and a garage in Park City, Utah. Our roots were humble, and we've grown since then, but our vision is still clear: to sell the best outdoor gear—and to create gear that’s even better through our very own gear and apparel brand.
