The one and only bombproof external frame backpack from Dana Gleason, bought just after K2 purchased Dana Designs. Bought in 1996 or 1997, I'm pretty sure while Gleason was still overseeing production if my research is correct. Lightly used, meticulously cared for, and then loving stored away during my "canoe camping phase" of the Aughts. I'm told that hunters love these packs because they can carry such a heavy load comfortably.
Packbag size: L Suspension/shoulder straps: L
Waist/hip belt: no tag, but it fits me great, and I'm a size 40" or so waist.
Color: a greenish/blue?
No stains, rips, tears, holes, and all zippers, pulls, pockets, straps, and buckles intact and flawless. Smells like mothballs from so long in storage, but no insect or rodent damage, so that's good!
Price: $250 SHIPPED CONUS, and PayPal fee included
Act now and I'll throw in the hard-to-find Dana Designs packfly/raincover, never used and only pulled from its storage sack for purposes of these pictures. It has the hood feature which keeps rainwater from flowing down between your back and the pack itself.
(Pack filled with pillows to give it some shape for these pictures)

Full disclosure: I'm not a hunter, I'm a paddler and backpacker trying to go "lighter", but someone suggested that a hunting forum might be interested in this pack. Feel free to ask any questions and if you want I can link you to some forums where I'm an active member with feedback. Thanks for looking.

If I didn't already own one, and a Longbed packboard, I'd be all over this.

This should go fast.

Rick - I'll give it a day or two, but if no one shows any interest you get dibs on the packfly. For now it's my "sweetener". haha

Rick - sent you a PM - the fly is yours if you still want it. Let me know ASAP and I'll adjust the thread itself to reflect this.
