I am planning on backpacking through Europe for 5 weeks this summer. Most of my travel will be via rail and stays in hostels, so I won't be doing all those extreme activities depicted on the websites of the backpack manufacturers. I went through and found some possible suitable backpacks:
Gregory:

The size range I am looking is around 5000-5500 cubic inches, enough to hold my clothes and any souveniers along the way.
Which do you guys think would be the best? Am I missing any?
