Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry.com:
"With a reputation for durability, quality, and unparalleled load support, it's obvious why the Denali Pro is used on serious expeditions worldwide. The Denali Pro features all of Gregory's cutting edge technology including their Auto Cant shoulder harness system that automatically rotates to mirror your shoulder slope and neck width. In addition, the waistbelt adjusts to three different angles to mirror your hip-to-waist angle, providing optimum weight distribution. Constructed with only the most durable materials in the world, the result is superb carrying comfort, and a pack (and back!) that will last through your golden years. Access all of your gear quickly and easily from the top, front, or bottom. The top pocket/lid converts into a lumbar pack, and side pockets have ski tail pass-throughs. Gear loops and full compression straps abound. The Denali Pro is capable of carrying everything you need for a month on the mountain, and yet is versatile enough to use on the summit day. It is quite possibly the finest expedition pack ever made, and for that reason distinguishes itself as one of our best-sellers. We love it!"

From REI:
"The Gregory Denali Pro pack is touted as the "Best Value Expedition Pack" in the 2003 Backpacker Magazine Gear Guide! Denali Pro offers load support, custom fit and easy access for mountaineers and trekkers who demand performance without compromise. Foam-padded, contoured shoulder straps with Auto-Cant™ design fit a wide range of shoulders and adjust automatically to varying trail conditions. Soft, thermo-formed foam back panel with cushion inserts and molded air channels offers breathable comfort. Dual-density foam-padded hipbelt is pre-curved to hug the hips and provide greater comfort and load-carrying support. Light HDPE framesheet with cutouts and dual aluminum stays provide an optimal blend of stiffness and torsional flex. Sleeping bag compartment features a separate zippered entry and a removable divider. The Gregory Denali Pro pack offers 2 ways to get at your gear: top-loading and front pocket access to the main compartment. Mesh pocket divider zips closed to keep contents of the front pocket separate from the main bag; unzips for easy access to the main compartment. Removable top lid converts to a waist pack for quick hikes away from camp. 2 large mesh side pockets let you keep essentials close at hand. Internal mesh sleeve holds a hydration reservoir (sold separately) for hands-free hydration on the go. Includes vinyl-reinforced ski slots, dual ice axe/tool loops and a daisy chain for attaching additional gear. Top and side compression straps along with quick-release sleeping pad straps help stabilize the load. The Gregory Denali Pro pack is made of durable Cordura® nylon with Spectra®-reinforced nylon stress points that offer strength and abrasion resistance. Waterproof Shelter-Rite™ material covers the bottom of the pack to provide long-lasting wear and protection from the elements."

"Excellent pack. I've carried in excess of 70 pounds in winter (wearing expedition plastic climbing boots with crampons) and 65 pounds in summer wearing hiking boots without any problems. When the pack is fully loaded it is heavy but manageable. The suspension and shoulder harness system adjusts the harness angle to eliminate pinching so heavy loads are well distributed."

"This bag is superb. I can load it with as much as 100lbs for training and it does not disturb me. Of course this is heavy, but I don't feel any pressure point or discomfort. I used it mostly on winter trips. I am rough with my equipment and when I compress my gear, I compress my gear."

"ALTHOUGH THIS PACK DOES GREAT IN ANY WEATHER WITH 50 LBS, OR LESS, DO NOT EXEED THAT MUCH WEIGHT. I RECENTLY WENT ON A 35 DAY MOUNTAINEERING EXPEDITION WITH IT, AND I CAN'T BEGIN TO TELL YOU ALL THE MISERY IT GAVE ME WITH 80+ LBS. EVEN THOUGH IT HAS THE CAPACITY TO CARRY THAT MUCH GEAR, IT DOESN'T HAVE THE SUSPENSION TO DO IT COMFORTABLY."

"I recently took a gentleman on his first backpacking trip, which meant that I carried all of our group gear plus my camera gear. My load with my camera gear was in excess of 60 lbs. My Gregory carried all this very comfortably. I've used Kelty, Lowe and Dana (Terraplane) packs before, but couldn't find a pack that carried well."

"If you are looking for a pack that can carry all your backpacking equipment, winter gear and/or mountaineering equip. -- this is it. The "frame" and suspension are second to none. Carrying 60+ pounds while snowshoeing in 3 feet of powder is hard work, but wearing this pack you won't experience sore shoulders or count how many times you have had to cinch up your hipbelt to keep the load from slipping down your body."

"When I bought this pack, I questioned my sanity for spending so much. Now I can unquestionably say that it was worth every penny. Properly fitted, you don't carry this thing, you wear it like a well-washed T-shirt. I've previously owned two packs, an external frame (I don't know what kind) and a mid-line Lowe internal frame."

"After 15 years with the same external frame pack I decided to join the 20th century and try an internal. I've owned several packs in the past 25 years, and this is by far the most comfortable thing I've ever carried. The quality is exceptional, and the 62 lbs I had at the start of a nine day trip was hardly noticable. I love the thing."

"After a long, long search, and a lack of neccessary disposible income, I finally decided on this exceptionally comfortable pack. The suspension is adjustable enough that, combined with the range of available sizes, you are practically guaranteed a perfect fit."

"Got the pack for Christmas in '97, it had only been out for two weeks. Since then (three months) I have been on five trips and loved every comfortable minute of it. I love gadgets and accessories and this pack has it all. I would recommend this pack to anyone with a passion for backpacking."
