Something for general alpine travel and weekends. Prefer hydration compatible, removable hip belt, frame and top lid. I'm about a 19" torso but some of the one size packs in this range feel too short. Tried on a Lowe Alpine Attack last night, felt constricted. Really like Crux but $250 is too steep right now. Any tips or info would be greatly appreciated!
Update:
Went with a 2014 unused Black Diamond Speed 40
