(Recon) Nunatak Backpack - 1850 cu in

The true story of badass explorers from six different nations who battled minus 125 degrees Fahrenheit temps and navigated across 100-foot-deep crevasses is pretty damn inspiring. The North Face logo on the Nunatak Backpack commemorates the 1990 Trans-Antarctica crossing. Even though your backpack full of work, school, or day-hiking gear doesn't really equal the amount of weight you'd be carrying for 220 days of frigid travel, the Nunatak still provides a back-saving panel that distributes your load, a tuck-away hip belt for days when you're carrying less, and a breathable mesh back panel.

Bottom Line: Everyday inspiration.

Talk shop with all the gear freaks out there: ask 'em questions, upload/browse photos, and give your 2¢.

Chris, this has been discontinued a while ago and you are going to have a difficult time finding it new. I would suggest to keep trying E-Bay and as Aaron posted, you could give TNF a call and maybe they can help you.

You should be able to contact TNF and ask them what stores they have sold it to, either online or in your area.

not worth the money

By:

nice back pack, but not alot of space to hold all my stuff. the white color gets dirty easy. the pockets are smaller than i expected. not worth all the money i spent on it.
