If you are asking about structural integrity and uniform load transfer, the pack will have no problem with 70 lbs. It's more of a question to ask the hiker.

not a problem for the pack I would have to agree with Phil that it would out load most mortals!

I've always thought that the Bora packs would be most comparable to Gregory's expedition packs - such as the Denali Pro. At least from an intended use point of view this seems like a better comparison than to the Palisade. Otherwise, I'd say it's pretty darn hard to do a direct comparison. Nothing is more important than trying the pack on, getting the pack fit to you correctly and then loading it up with weight. Especially at 70 lb loads, fit is going to be key and different packs will work better for different people.
