Gregory Denali 75L Backpack Basalt Black, L

Being the little brother of the Denali 100, the Gregory Denali 75 Backpack is designed for overnight alpine climbs and minimalist expeditions. The pack maintains the same technical prowess of the Denali 100, but is a smaller and more nimble option that will keep weight to a minimum and provide sleek and streamlined functionality whether you're getting deep into the backcountry or high into the alpine.

There's a removable bivy pad concealed in the back panel, and the hip belt can be also removed when you're really trying to go fast and light in the high alpine.

There's an internal hydration reservoir with a tube port to keep you hydrated and a quick-access zippered pocket at the side that's designed to keep your topo map close at hand.
