Description

Big capacity and big comfort meet head-on with this versatile week-worthy pack.

Your week-long trail ambitions may be misunderstood by co-workers and family, but once you put on the Baltoro 75 Backpack and feel how great its Response AFS suspension responds to a heavy load, you realize that Gregory has your back.This updated award-winning top-loader incorporates a larger load capacity with beefed-up suspension to carry all you need for a head-clearing getaway.

  • Thermo-molded EVA back panel and a grippy lumbar pad increase load transfer to your hips
  • Soft, adjustable, and load-stabilizing waist-belt rotates independently from the pack to provide functional support as you move through the mountains
  • LifeSpan EVA foam in the 3D precurved shoulder straps and waist-belt prevent hot spots on high-contact areas and retain their cushioning throughout years of use
  • Auto-cant harness technology with Auto-fit waist-belt system enable maximum fit with minimal adjustment
  • Single 7075-T6 aluminum stay and molded composite load-lifting panel prohibit barreling under heavy loads as well as enhance energy transfer
  • Front zipper access to the main compartment makes lunch breaks quick and easy, and the top quick-draw drawstring allows super-quick access to gear
  • Big pack space and cushy suspension allows you to comfortably carry up to 50lbs of gear, clothing, foot, and water through your chosen wilderness arena
  • Removable top lid doubles as a lumbar pack or sling bag and features a zip pocket and underside stash pocket for quick spurs off the main trail
  • Durable nylon fabric withstand lots of tough bushwhacking and a double-layered, water-resistant bottom panel prevents wear and a wet sleeping bag
  • DWR-coated, water-resistant zips prevent rain drops from invading your extra dry layers
  • Hydration sleeve and ports let you pipe your hydration reservoir (sold separately) directly to your lips during long treks
  • Bottom-accessed sleeping bag compartment separates your bag from other gear for easy access
  • Front zip, two top lid zip, two side zip, two waist-belt zip, and two side water bottle pockets keep your knife, camera, snacks, map, and water bottles accessible
  • Two trekking pole loops secure your sticks when your not cruising along the open trail
  • Top lid, bottom, and side compression straps shrink the Baltoro into a stable package when not fully loaded and also help to attach gear
  • Top and front loops let you attach extra gear during the longest treks

This pack is pretty good for multi-day hikes or even a quick hike that requires a lot of gear like running to a climbing crag. It carries heavy loads very well and makes it feel like a small backpack. This pack also has some nice features like the holster styled water bottle holder and gear loops. Many different zippers for easy access to all of the different compartments. The lid is huge and contains many different items that need to be accessed easily. Overall great larger sized pack that I would recommend to anyone that it fits.

Great pack for many different uses.

Seems like you never run out of room to cram things into this beast. It can easily accommodate a 4-5 day trip in style. The load does seem to get carried by the pack very efficiently making up for the packs heavy weight. All zippers and buckles work well. The Baltoro is a feature-rich pack that seems perfect for trips where your normal pack size might just not cut it. The only downside is, you'll need a smaller pack for when your wanting to take less. Seems like you need quite a bit of stuff in the pack just to get it to look right.

So I ended up returning this pack after a summer of use, not because there was anything wrong with it. I saw the new model of the Osprey Aether 85 and they finally made the changes I wanted. They added hipbelt pockets which is a must for me. This pack is not bad though it does have a few shortcomings. I like all the features it has but the hip belt pockets are rather small so you can only carry small items such as chapstick. I am not a fan of the back pads though because there is no room for air circulation.
This pack still has a lot of nice features such and a removable lumbar pack. A sleeping bag compartment is an amazing feature and I love it.
It fits great even though it doesn't have an adjustable torso like the Osprey.
I was really on the fence between these two packs that it came down to such small details that made me chose this Gregory pack. Now that Osprey has fixed their pack I am going to give it a try who knows I may be switching back to the Boltoro.

I have always loved Gregory packs but this one is by far my favorite. It is the perfect size - it will fit all of the essentials but not so big that there will be extra space or temptation to carry things that you don't need. The suspension on this pack is very sturdy and comfortable. This pack has pockets in all the right places and allows easy access and organization of your gear.

I have a 2L bladder in my pack...It has enough room that I could fit a 3L in the bladder bag. The bladder bag compartment is not tied down at the base and can move in the pack itself. Only the top of the bladder compartment it tied to the frame. If you move to a 3L bladder you will lose some a pretty good amount of space in your bag.

Justin King

Agreed. While a 3L bladder would fit in the sleeve, it would take up substantial space in the pack.

So, I like a pack that is feature-rich, and this pack is loaded with handy organizational spots and comfort features. It's light, but it's focus really isn't on being ultra-light. If you don't mind packing a few extra oz in order to to have a lot of features, this is a win.

I also was a little bit worried about the squeaking issues from the auto-adjust hinged support systems, but I haven't heard a peep yet. If it does start making noise, I'm just going to hit it with a little silicone-based lubricant.

I like the lid/fannypack combo. I thought I would hate it because I generally try to stay away from fanny packs. But, the lid pack is more of sachel with a single strap. It's handy for afternoon walks.

This backpack has a very comfortable fit, especially under a heavy load. The padding
locations are excellent as are the numerous adjustment belts. There are several compartments that offer many access points. You can get to any space in the pack
without taking everything out. The detachable daypack is excellent for "side trips". The Rain Cover fits over the pack well and keeps the pack dry in nasty conditions. Overall,excellent design and craftsmanship.

I purchased the Baltoro 75 last Fall and so far I have absolutely no complaints. Works great for everything from weekend camping trips to lugging around climbing gear. Packed to the brim I still got it to fit as a carry-on, the only downfall is the foam waistbelt doesn't collapse well which makes it awkward for travel. All around a great pack, don't let something minor like the suspension squeaking change your mind.

I was actually about to purchase this pack . What squeaking/ noise are you actually reffering too ? Is it a bad annoying noise ? Is it normal ? What is causing it ?

Someone mentioned the squeeking noise caused by the adjustable suspension. How noisy is this thing?

It does squeak a little yeah, but not so much as to be annoying (to me). Quantitatively, probably around 35 dB.

I have a large pack cover for mine and it has plenty of room left over

pgunnz

I always go with a size larger for pack covers so there is room to go over things attached to the outside of the pack. So I would go with something that has about a 100L volume just so you have extra space if you have a sleeping pad or something on the outside.

Justin King

As was mentioned, it really depends on whether you plan on having items attached to the outside of the pack. I tried out a medium pack cover and it was sufficient as long as there weren't any items on the outside, If that is the case, you likely will need at least a large, although I would recommend avoiding too large of a cover as you tend to get pockets of water accumulating in that case

I've had mine a couple years now and the velcro is still like new. I'm talking about the velcro on the ice axe/trekking pole loops and water bottle pocket. Is that the same velcro you're asking about? (I can't think of any other velcro components)

Justin King

I have never had any problems with the velcro wearing out. If you do, Gregory has a pretty good warranty program and Backcountry will also let you send the product back there if you aren't satisfied with it

You can try the osprey aether or atmos... (The Kestrel is nice as well, but no removable top. i think the aether is closer to what you are looking for. I had a Gregory that fell apart after 6 short trips, I have heard mixed reviews on the durability of Gregory Packs. You can't go wrong with Osprey's "All Mighty Guarantee"

Osprey's packs are really light in comparison as well.

Justin King

Member since 
Responded on

For me, the decision came down to the Gregory Baltoro or the Osprey Aether. Before actually trying to packs on, I was leaning towards the Osprety Aether. It was lighter, had the All Might Guarantee and I liked how it looked visually. However after trying the packs on, I was sold on the Gregory. Don't get me wrong. The Aether would be a great pack, as long as you aren't carrying more than 25 pounds or so. There was a very noticeable difference between the comfort of the packs when you starting packing the packs with more than 30 pounds.

The removable fanny pack isn't anything to write home about. I would prefer the pack have a better removable pack, however it suffices for its purpose.

What kind of sleeping bag would fit easily in the pack? (20-5 degree weather)

Dave Marcus

The Baltoro is big enough that just about any down sleeping bag in that temperature range will fit. Most quality synthetic bags will fit as well. The possibilities are wide open.

I've got an REI Halo 25 degree down and it fits in the bottom compartment with a sleeping pad and pillow. You could honestly fit any down bag in there.

pgunnz

Member since 
Responded on

If you just stuff the sleeping bag in there (no stuff sack) it will fit just about anything. When I put a synthetic bag into a dry sack I had a few more issues with getting it to fit right. Down bags you shouldn't really have any issues just because they compress really well.

Justin King

Member since

The sleeping bag compartment would accomodate most down and synthetic bags, however the compartment does appear to be a little bit smaller than what I have seen on other packs

This pack is everything I hoped it would be. I have not had it on the trail yet but I have been hiking three days a week with 30 lbs in it, including a couple of 6 milers, to get in shape for this summer. I probably have close to 75 miles on it and it has worked great. It does a great job of carrying the weight on my hips. It is easy to adjust and quite comfortable. The pack is heavy duty and has all the capacity I will need. One nice surprise was the water bottle carrier that is easy to access with the pack on. Just one example of the thought put into the design. I did a lot of research and ended up spending more than I had planned on but I'm glad I did. I am looking forward to hitting the trail in May.

I have been traveling around the US and the world with this bag over the past year. I can say its a great investment. Currently, I am using it as my primary bag here in Afghanistan. I doubt that anyone will have this sort of issue but the straps are actually long enough to fit over Body Armor, which means it will definitely fit over any coat you can throw at it. My first trip over to Afghan, this bag was loaded with 48 POUNDS of gear and clothes and wasn't showing any signs of strain. While I have been here, I routinely carry between 30-38 pounds of clothes and gear and this bag takes it will ease. Great choice, great fit, and honestly, have not left home without it!
