Here's what other sites are saying:

From Backcountry.com:
"When you have an extended approach on your next alpine climb, pack your gear into The North Face Prophet 65 Backpack. The North Face outfitted this large technical backpack with everything an expedition climber needs to summit. Load your climbing gear into the Prophet 65 Pack's voluminous 4000 cubic inch interior, organize your pro with the color-coded straps, and secure your ice screws and ice axe into any of the multiple tool loops. You'll shoulder your gear in comfort thanks to this lightweight backpack's molded E-VAP back panel and shoulder straps, and body-forming hip-belt. If you need to bring a bit more gear, this Summit Series Backpack expands by 610 cubic inches (10L) to accommodate an extra rope and food. Removable aluminum stays let you cut down the Prophet 65 Backpack's already paltry 3lb 9oz, and a removable bivy pad has your back for those unexpected nights below the summit."

"Best I've ever owned. I found it very comfortable and roomy. Spare and light. Too bad they don't have a 90 liter model."

"If they had let me test it prior to buying, I would have gladly paid twice as much for it. Super comfy suspension, roomy, elegant, light, and efficient. Can't ask for more from a backpack. I own Kelty, Karrimor, Vaude, Deuter,and Osprey packs. This is my first North Face pack and I love it. I've used it for my last six trips, no problems."

"I purchased this pack two years ago, and at the time it represented one of the true lightweight packs with a frame system suitable to carrying 40 lb loads. Overall, I find the suspension more than adequate, the padding to be adequate, and the top bag convenient (though not truly an ultralight feature)."
