The
Camelback Chaos hydration pack is on sale at
Altrec. It’s just $ 49.97, that’s about 33% off, and covered by Altrec’s
free shipping on $45+ orders. Not a bad deal for a 600 cubic-inch pack with Camelback’s new air mesh harness and back pad. The light hydration pack isn’t beefy enough to a-frame a pair of skis, but the quick-release flap can hold-down a snowboard or snowshoes. The best part of this season’s new Camelback gear is the new coating on the inside of the hydration bladder and drinking hose that uses silver to kill bacteria and fungus or mold.




Two serious backcountry board and ski packs from Patagonia are also on sale at
Altrec. Both the
Inner Limits daypack (to the right in blue) and the bigger (and so creatively named)
Inner Limits large daypack (in red to the left) are both $109.97. They’re from Patagonia so they’re about as well-built as gear gets, but I’m still going to go on about how they can both carry skis either a-frame or cross-carry, have shovel pockets, inner skin pockets, and hydration bladders with insulated hoses to prevent freeze-ups.
