One of the most essential pieces of kit when out hiking or climbing is a good head torch. Even if you think you will be off the hill before the sun dips below the horizon it is always wise to be prepared just in case you are not. Navigating and walking in the dark is not fun, at worse it can lead to a bad fall or a night out on the hill.
Mammut have three of their Mammut X-shot head torches (SRP £80) to give away in this exclusive Walkhighlands competition.
Mammut X Shot
The Mammut X Shot is a lightweight, versatile headtorch designed for mountaineering, hiking and expedition use. It features a single highflux LED which gives a powerful 110m beam and two angled definition LEDs to provide a close range flood beam. This makes the X Shot a great torch for close navigation where you can use the main beam to identify features and then the flood to avoid dazzling yourself when map reading.
The X-shot’s remote battery pack ensures that the torch is stable enough for runners which, combined with its power to weight ratio, makes it a great adventure racing torch.
The X Shot uses three AA batteries (included) in a head mounted external battery pack to give a burn time of between 15 and 200 hours depending on your choice of light mode. The X-Shot also includes a red rear LED for visibility on roads at night.
