Second the Kelty Redwing 50, it's a very comfy well designed pack. The storage is actually pretty easy to get to since you can open it either in top load or fully open like a suitcase, the pass through pouches on the sides are handy for carrying all kinds of stuff like my saws, axe, and cringey swords.
You should go to a sporting goods store and try one on, you'll like it.
