I'm 6'5" 296 lbs with a 23-24 inch torso length. Is this a good fit for someone my size. I have never gone hiking, and we are going in Feb upstate NY. I'm starting to get confused.

I have about the same torso length as you (around 23)and find that the Red Cloud 6650 adjusted to the max length works for me . You'll definitely max out the torso length but it will work. This is a BIG pack. If you're not going for a multi-day backpacking trip, I'd recommend a smaller pack like the Red Wing 3100. Hope this helps.
