Alpinisto 50
Mountaineers, alpine climbers, and one-backpack-to-do-it-all types should seriously consider the updated Gregory Alpinisto 50 pack. Short Answer: This pack will do so many things so well that it may cause some of the other packs in your gear cave to shed tears of loneliness. Its durability and versatility make it a fantastic choice for backpackers and alpinists alike. I'd easily take this pack up Mt. Rainier. Trips it is NOT suited for would be single-day, smash and grab alpine climbs and UL backpacking… Full review
Stout 65
Extremely comfortable and well built backpack. Flew several times with this bag as checked luggage and went on many several day hiking trips ranging from three to 10 days each and this bag has held up beautifully and still looks brand new. This is a great pack for multiple day hikes and backpacking trips through Europe. Fit: This backpack is highly adjustable and able to fit people of many sizes. I am relatively short (5' 6") and I was able to adjust the height of this pack so that it fit me perfectly. Full review

Suitable for two days overnight mountain climbing or river tracing. Hip belts and shoulder and sternum straps are adjustable and comfortable. Fits a lot of stuff if you pack it correctly. Full review
Baltoro 85
Great pack, comfy, packs a ton and super durable. Have had mine for going on two years and I've abused it without running into any issues.

Only have two real gripes. First is the waterproof hip-pouch is not large enough to stash a GPS device (e.g. DeLorme) or a smartphone; and second is that the hanging mechanism for… Full review
Zulu 40
A great daypack or ultralight weekend pack. I use this as a day pack to haul around camera gear in addition to all the usual hiking gear. I'm typically carrying 30 to 35 pounds in this pack and it handles the load very well. The pack straps and waist belt are really comfortable and easily adjusted. The padding is firm, but not as firm as in the Gregory expedition packs—appropriate for the loads this is designed to carry. The top knot pocket is fairly large and easily holds snacks, gps, headlamp,… Full review
