Skip the one with the wheels, you'll be disappointed. A frameless pack with an ultralight load will serve you well if you plan accordingly and will be re-stocking food every 3-5 days. One reasonably priced option with plenty of room is the Kelty Redwing. For more information on gear to put into the pack that won't weigh you down, see the website below.
