Backpack dilemma

I have a 7 day backpack hunt booked and need a large pack, figuring 5000ci plus. This may be my last backpack hunt as those days are mostly behind me. So here is the dilemma, do I buy one of the top quality packs like Kuiu, Mystery Ranch or Kifaru then sell it after the hunt or is there something that is less expensive but still good enough to get me by for perhaps 1 hunt?
I've been watching the classifieds and craigslist for used but haven't found one yet.

I have a virtually unused Stone Glacier pack. I’ll sell it for a reasonable price. I have 5 packs. I need to get some out of my garage.

I have a Stone Glacier and Larry might have your answer. They are top of the line.

Thanks for the offer! I bought the pack that Larry Shores had so I am set.

If it is the Stone Glacier I can't imagine you being disappointed. They have good videos on their website for questions.

Lots of good offers here . Don't skimp on your pack its an important piece of your gear. Looks like MD Stewart has a nice pack you can use. Remember to that backpacks are not one size fits all and should be fitted appropriately for a comfortable experience. I like Mystery Ranch as all made in USA here in MT.
