[pct-l] Big Gear Test Coming Up

[Hiker97 at aol.com]

The folks over at Aquaclip are  sending me some samples to test for 
hiking(w_ww.aquaclip.com)_ (http://www.aquaclip.com) .  
 
I am like some of you and think they might slip out as you walk down and up  
a trail.  But who knows until tested with a pack and all the hiking  gear.  If 
it turns out that this simple device is the answer to carry water  on the 
waist as I hike, I will feel pretty stupid after all my years playing  around 
with this idea.
 
I was thinking that even if I had to add some Velcro straps to hold them on  
the belt a little better, that would be no big deal.  Also, I was wondering  
if they might not only work with water bottles, but with some Platypus water  
holder models.  I would like that better than bottles.
 
Any way, I will report back to you  as soon as my experiments are over.
