I agree, this pack should be big enough to fit anything you can think of inside it! This (the 5,600 version) was my first pack and I was happy with it. Kelty makes a durable, rugged pack that will stand up to the challenge. Also, these can usually be found for cheaper, at least when I got mine they were. Mine was listed at $199 but I ended up getting it for $129.

This would make an excellent pack for you, it has all the pockets and features that any backpacker would need. The top pocket is removable with an integrated waist belt to turn it into a lumbar pack, side pockets for stashing smaller items, front pocket with organization to place items that are needed readily through out the day, hydration compatible, and an adjustable torso to fine tune your fit. I would suggest the m/l size for you. Kelty products are incredibly durable,well built and come with a limited lifetime warranty.
