I use the Dachgo Hydration bladder (3l)
What I like:
you want ones with circular screw off lids the other kinds are harder to use and you don't want the kind with like a clip on top sealing it either
and it has two chambers so ice water doesn't make sloshing noises while you hike
also I think the hoses that come with them are the good kind - meaning it connects to a plastic mouthpiece that can be set to always open or closed with a twist valve
but - I buy the, unfortunately expensive, camelbak big bite mouthpieces, because the included ones you can't get nearly enough water down at once with
I am in the market for a replacement backpack
what I have now is a slightly older camelbak backpack design 20L and its just too small but its otherwise great other than that the back straps give up after a year or two
what I like is it has zippered small outside pockets so i can keep my wallet/meds within easy reach without having to put the backpack down and rifle through a main chamber - and I can't seem to find anything like that in a slightly larger size - so I can carry more gear maybe 30-40L is what I want
