Osprey Packs Argon 70 Backpack - 4300-4700cu in

Osprey loaded the Argon 70 Backpack with every plush feature the company could think of, from an ultra-padded waist-belt to an integrated hydration system. Two aluminum stays and a molded back panel increase comfort when you load up every bit of the Argon 70 Backpack's 4500cu inch cargo space. Top and side access help you get to your headlamp without having to dig through everything. Osprey also added a removable lid that doubles as lumbar pack for short hikes from camp.

Bottom Line: Make comfort a priority. Hit the trail with the Osprey Argon 70 Backpack.

The Osprey website has a section on measuring for fit. It shows you how to do it. Based on your numbers it looks like the large would fit.
Also, this pack comes with a hipbelt that can be custom molded. Check out www.ospreypacks.com. It lists the dealers than can do this for you.
