works great for med sized loads

Ranked #298 - Hydration Packs - Large

I just got this a few months ago -- I use for for Search and Rescue -- it is my 'rope rescue' 24hr pack (non-alpine). Basically, it holds everything I could possibly need for 24hrs on a search and rescue mission, including my harness, helmet, gloves, goggles and extra team gear. Also, it is easy to attach stuff to the outside (like axes and stuff).
The only thing I wish camelback should address is that it is hard to insert the bladder when your pack is full.
