What is your opinion?

Are you climbing or backpacking? Buy some generic 50 litre pack, take
the savings and put it toward climbing gear, a vacation day off, or maybe
a date. Whatever gets you climbing more.

What do most climbers use to pack their stuff up who have a similar gear
setup?

Whatever ... I've seen a guy bring his stuff to the craig in a plastic
laundry basket and ramble up 12s like a walk. There's a lesson in their
about being too much of a gear head, be a gear head about the things that
really matter (e.g., gear size ranges).
