Top Hydration Packs

Hydration packs have come a long way since the original Camelbak system was made some 19 years ago. Today it seems like you can get a hydration bladder in anything from lifejackets to camera bags. If you have never used a backpack with a hydration pack, you don’t know what you’re missing. It’s easy to think that these bladders are over rated, but once you try one, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it before.

With so many different hydration packs out there, it’s easy to find one that can suit your needs. Many hydration packs are designed as daypacks. They offer ample liquid storage, as well as plenty of places to zip up, clip on, or pack in things.

Check out some of the latest hydration packs on the market today:

Camelbak Octane 8+
Hydrapak Tortuga
Deuter Attack
Gerber Tillen XC

These hydration packs range in price from $28 to over $140. When it comes to hydration packs you certainly get what you pay for. Cheaper, imitation brand, bladders are sure to leak and bust under pressure. Be sure to spend the extra money to get a name brand bladder.
