An external, fleece-lined pocket holds your MP3 or your shades, and the Trail Blazer's mesh back panel keeps some back-sweat at bay. Full-zip access to this CamelBak pack's reservoir makes filling up quick and easy."

"This hydration pack is great. It has draw straps should you lighten your load, drink the water or eat the food you stored. This is great for the trail running or hiking that you might be doing. The tightening of the pack stops shifting of your belongings."

"Bought this pack for XC skiing. It has been alright for that: small, compact, and holds enough water for a day's run. Plus, it fits over two layers nicely. Would not, however, recommend it for a day hike with only a T-shirt. The shoulder straps are quite thin, and any weight, especially filling the bladder, will put your shoulders to the test."

"LOVE this thing. I do field research and collect samples so needed a pack with sufficient capacity and an easy convienient way to carry water for one day. It is an excellent compact (narrow) design for going off trail and through bush. Very comfortable back padding and straps (waist could be a bit wider)."
