Sold!!! Gregory "Denali" expedition backpack, size large was created by markharf
The Denali is famous for its huge size, ruggedness, indestructibility, and ability to carry massive weight for long distances in reasonable comfort. Recommended for guiding, winter climbing, expeditions, base-camping, and hauling multiple cases of beer to mountaintop parties. I seldom used it, but when I did it performed flawlessly.
It's got the usual bells and whistles--top-loading/back-entry, accessory loops, exterior pockets, zip-away dividers, daisy chains, adjustable frame stays, crampon patch, reinforced wear points, extendable collar, floating lid with waist belt for use as a lumbar pack, various adjustments in all directions. I'm not totally clear about its measured capacity--certainly upwards of 100 liters, ~7000 cubic inches, without the spindrift collar extended. It can also compress pretty nicely for smaller loads if you like.
It's not difficult to find online reviews, bearing in mind that mine is the original model, not its less-durable successor:

www.outdoorgearlab.com/reviews/climbing/...k/gregory-denali-100
New and used models are apparently still available online, generally costing $400+ (new) or
$150-200 (including shipping). I am far too old and frail to ever again make use of such a beast, but see the photo for proof that this was not always true. For reference, I'm 6 feet tall.
$130/b.o.
