About Jones

Jones Snowboards was founded in 2009 by big mountain legend Jeremy Jones, the rider behind the Deeper, Further and Higher film trilogy and the founder of Protect Our Winters. The brand is based in Truckee, California, near Lake Tahoe, and was built from day one around freeriding, splitboarding and getting into the backcountry under your own steam.

Today Jones is known for directional freeride boards, splitboards and technical touring gear designed with riders who spend their winters in the mountains. Its backcountry packs carry the same names as Jeremy's films, they're built with recycled, PVC-free fabrics, and Jones is a 1% for the Planet member. If you ride off the groomers, Jones is a brand that gets it.

FAQs

Will the Jones Higher 32L carry my snowboard?
Yes. Adjustable straps carry your board vertically on the front, or skis on the side. The zipped back panel means you can still get into the main compartment without unstrapping your board.

Is the Higher 32L avalanche-tool ready?
Yes. A dedicated front pocket holds your shovel and probe, separate from your layers and food. Always carry a transceiver, shovel and probe in avalanche terrain, and get avalanche training before you head out.

Does it fit a hydration bladder?
Yes. There's an internal water bladder sleeve, plus a flip-down bottle holder on the outside. No bladder is included.

Is 32L too big for sidecountry laps?
It can be more than you need. The Higher shines on long tours where you carry rope, radio, crampons and extra layers. For short laps, the Deeper 19L or Further 25L keeps things lighter.

How do I clean it?
Empty the pack, brush off dirt and spot clean with mild soap and cold water. Rinse and hang it to air dry out of direct sun before storing. Avoid harsh detergents, which can strip the DWR finish on the base.
