Osprey Eclipse 36 pack sz M $50

[Fromage]

This is an old-school pack, made in the days when backpacks were tanks and not the sissy ultralight disposable junk currently filling the walls at REI. It's heavy, no doubt about it, and that is because it's made to last with tough fabrics, cushy suspension, and a frame that can carry your gear comfortably.

 

It's a medium frame with a stay and plastic framesheet. Features include main compartment, zippered outside compartment, 2 pockets in lid, wand pockets, compression panels and straps that can clip into 2 different positions depending on the pack load, daisy chain, 2 ice axe loops, medium hipbelt, and 3 adjustable straps for carrying long skinny things (pickets, etc.)

 

This would make an excellent cragging, ice climbing, or overnight pack. Would also be perfect for travel. If you spend hours on the internet comparing pack specs this is not for you. If you cut off part of the handle on your toothbrush to save weight this pack is not for you. If you want something that is comfortable and will withstand many years of heavy use and are strong enough that a couple extra pounds won't slow you down, this is a solid choice.

 

Retail on these things was around $180ish back in the late paleolithic period. I'm asking $50. Condition is excellent as you can see from the photos. No smells, no stains, minimal signs of use. This pack has been sitting in the gear closet and simply doesn't see action anymore because it's redundant with other packs in the fleet.

 

Prefer local cash exchange in Seattle, best bet is near public library downtown during weekday business hours or in Capitol Hill area evenings or weekends. I can ship on buyer's dime and will accept PayPal.
