Essential Winter Gear

Snowshoeing in -30 degree weather, your tube will freeze even if you blow back the water, unless you have this kit. With the kit, and blowing the water back each time, you're fine all day long. I keep it on year 'round, since the bite-valve cover keeps it clean in the summer, and it does add a bit of cooling effect versus the uninsulated tube, preventing that first gulp of warm water in warmer weather. For anyone using a real backpack, there is no problem threading it through any opening you'll encounter. All-in-all, fine equipment: essential for winter, a nicety for summer
