Backpack for my wife

So this is probably my forth or fifth Patagonia post.

My wife and I are going to Patagonia from Feb 6-March 6. I'm ging to be carrying a tent, sleeping bag, and possibly some cooking gear. For my wife, what size backpack would you recommend I get for her? I've decided (due to much advice on the forums) to get a 70L pack. Any help is greatly appreciated!
Cheers,
Eric

(btw my wife is about 5'10, 120lbs)

Hey Eric!

Me again.

When we trek I have a 70lt sack and my girlfriend has a 55lt sack. This was the set up for TdP circuit and worked well.

Tryfan, you're the man, seriously thank you for all the help and advice!
About to book the tickets, we're gonna take your advice and fly into El Calafate and spend a month making our way down to Ushuaia and fly back... super stoked!
Thanks again,
Eric
