I should also say that i ended up taking 3 pictures with the hasselblad kit i took to alaska. Big waste of space and weight. I will not be doing it again this year.
Beyond that, my recommendation would be to avoid a black one.
As an aside because I still think the OP will be much better off with what I suggested, Domke is redoing their line to a whole new design:

Random non-advice?
I'm sure that along with me, Bill Schwab or Michael Kenna would be blasting through fantastic frames with their Blads in Alaska, it is still my most productive camera system.
My Hasselblad kit lives in a Domke F2, it works very well with it. Backs are a very nice fit in the end pockets.
Like cjbecker, I use mine only with the shoulder strap. A friend who is also a member here uses an F2 for his MF kit with the backpack straps, he seems to like it. Not sure if I'd want to do 10 or 20 miles, but for shorter stuff it's fine. If you will do any minor climbing then the back strap kit would be a good idea.
Beyond that, my recommendation would be to avoid a black one.
oh-kee, you got me here... having lugged black ones half-way around the globe, what exactly is the problem?
Reason 1 is that if it spends any time in the sun it will cook the film and gear.
2) They shout CAMERA BAG, though it's not as if a tan F2 doesn't, but colors other than black are somewhat lower profile.
3) They look like everyone else's black camera bag.
YMMV
