RE: What size backpack for spike camping?

So there I was last night, early evening to be precise, sitting in a comfortable chair on my back deck waiting for the grill to heat up, drinking an ice cold pilsner andleafing throughthe latest Cabelas Archery catalog; when what do I spy on the glossy colored pages, the Badlands 4500 Internal Frame Pack ($350). Hmmm... the Badlands 4500 Internal Frame Pack looks suspiciously like the Vortex 4500 Internal Frame Backpack that I saw on sale at Sierra Trading Post early in the day. I log on and find that the two packs are indeed one and the same, the only difference is the fabric color (camo vs. non-camo) and price ($350 vs. $108).

Take a wild guess on which one I ordered.
