We too have the 12 y/o scout that is through his first year scouting and found the best pack "ever" (quote from my son) is The North Face Crestone 60 - Woman's in the green color. It has enough pockets to keep even the king of gadgets happy, top, bottom and side access, a bladder compartment for his 2L Camelbak and fits remarkably well. The separate compartment for the sleeping bag is big enough to accommodate the Mont Bell bag and isn't too hard to get it stuffed in with the big zipper access. I would recommend buying a rain cover for it too, since it didn't come with one. It has 3650cu in, which is perfect for the weekend or the Ben Delatour excursion, and the color is a pretty close match to the boyscout green.
