Write your question here...Can someone tell me, whether the CamelBak - when filled with cold water or ice - help keep your back cool during extreme hot weather? I get overheated easily and need a way of staying cool while I am working in hot weather.

If you are really bothered by a backpack in hot weather, some other models have a hollow space between the back of the pack and your back. There are others but I believe all of the Deuter packs have this feature.

Because of the insulated bladder pocket and the way that the padding is set up (thicker with air vent channels), filling this pack with ice won't be as noticeable as it would be with other packs with thinner padding. I do, however, regularly fill the bladder in mine about halfway with ice and I think it gives a slightly cooler feeling while resting on my back...besides the fact that there's nothing better than ice cold water when I'm cycling in 100 degree heat.
