I finally got around to reading my emails today and noticed some previous
comments about carrying water. I have a G4 pack and use the two bottle straps on
the should straps for a total of 1 liter, my belly pack for 2 liters, and
when needed two across the shoulders pouches (they hang about 10 inches below my
arm pits) for 3 more liters for a total of 5 liters with NO EXTRA WEIGHT IN
THE PACK. If I need more, then I will carry only 1-2 more liters in the pack.
This is a very flexible and easy system to use. By the way, I use SmartWater
(the clear flavored type) until it runs out. Very good stuff-absolutely
excellent. Also, the glue I use to stop zippers from accidentally sliding open, is
Elmer's regular glue. Happy trails, Switchback
