If bigger is better i would probably have to recommend the 5.11 RUSH 72. If your looking for a day pack or something to carry your crap to work then either the RUSH 12 or 24 would also work. While on the quest for the "Right bag for me" picked up the RUSH line of bags and fell in love with the 72, but it was just too massive to carry with me everyday to and from work and around town. I moved to the 12 which was too small as i carry a 15" macbook pro and tools for work, which led me to the 24 which has so far been the perfect size with some space to spare.

5.11 RUSH 24
But the 72 is fantastic for backpacking or using as a B.O.B.
i'm a big 5.11 Fan, but i have been eyeballing the TAD Fast Pack EDC, But i need my RUSH 24 to fail miserably before I get one.
Yep! I run two in the rush series
In case of the big one you connect one to the other and walk. They're amazing. Well made, well thought out, and durable as hell.
It's not the most fashionable but I'm currently using the 5.11 Tactical Rush 72. It has a TON of storage, webbing and it's super east to access anything you need. Plus, it's water repelling, durable and super comfortable. 5.11 makes smaller sizes but I prefer this one since I can cram anything I want into it.

I started working on a kit and figure it would be good to brainstorm about it a bit. While it probably doesn't deserve it's own thread, I'd like some input about it if possible since I still have time to change things around before I order anything.
I plan on going hiking/camping anywhere from 1-3 days and potentially even more if possible.
The pack I'm currently looking into is the 5.11 Rush 72 which should fit the bill. It has a pouch for my hydration bladder (which is a must have since I live in an arid region and running water can be rare depending on where you are located) as well as the molle for additional customization if needed.
When I'm out camping I like to have the ability to fry food as well as grill it. I have a makeshift grill that I constructed out of four tent pegs and a grate so I have that covered. In regards to frying I found a cook set that seems like it would be useful for my needs. I doubt that I would bring the entire set with me (besides the frying pan and maybe the pot if I have dried meals) which should cut down on weight a little.
For my sleep system I'm looking at a Aqua Quest 10x7 ultralight tarp, paracord (for hanging the tarp plus other uses if needed), and an OutdoorsmanLab Ultralight Sleeping Pad. I'm not entirely sure that I need a tarp since it rarely rains here but I can see it having potential against sun/wind. Both the sleeping pad and tarp fold up to about the size of a bottle which will allow me to store more gear if needed. I already have a sleeping bag insert and mummy bag if need be but I don't see myself using them for 3/4ths of the year.
Lastly, I'm looking at getting a Mora Companion for bushcraft related activities.
In total all the gear weighs about five pounds which seems reasonable enough. Let me know what you guys think.
I have a Rush 72 from 5.11
Helmet (Fullface) fits between the Admin-pocket flap and the main backpack, as long as you keep the Admin-pocket relatively empty, so kinda outside but still protected from scratches and bumping into things. I'm happy with the backpack, quite wide, not too high to bother with the helmet, not to low to sit comfortable, waterbladder pocket and openings are nice on long rides, Molle webbing is always welcome for customisation. It's relatively big which I see as an advantage.
Alternatively you could look here some of them have helmet pockets.
