Enormous, heavy, imposing. Often used for exaggerated or comic effect, especially when added to another indicator of size (e.g., "big hurking" or "huge hurking"). Compare: huge, beefy. Likely a Pacific Northwest regionalism (see examples, the first 5 of which come from authors who report their location as Washington State). Anecdotally, the word has been in regional use in this sense since at least the 1990s.

Nobody knows exactly what Hurk is; all we know about Hurk is that it is a game many would rather play instead of going to work.
"I'd rather play tennis than go to the dentist,
I'd rather play soccer than go to the doctor,
I'd rather play Hurk than go to work."
"Hurk? Hurk? What's Hurk?"
"I don't know, but it must be better than work."
-Shel Silverstein
