Camelbak Octane XCT

I purchased this today!!! The green shown here doesn't do the actual colour justice.


Camelbak Octane XCT Hydration Pack

Features

  • 70 oz OMEGA Reservoir
  • 2 Zippered Hipbelt Pockets
  • 1 Zippered Rear Pocket
  • Adjustable X-Cord Bungee
  • Air Channel Backpanel

The Camelbak Octane XCT Hydration Pack's ultralight and stable design meets the needs of trail runners, mountain bikers, and adventure racers.

Large zippered hipbelt pockets allow access to essentials on the move. A small zippered pocket and X-cord bungee on rear of the pack provides additional storage. The sternum strap is adjustable up or down 7 inches to where it is most comfortable for you. Air Channel™ back panel with Air Mesh delivers enhanced ventilation.

Internal reservoir pocket has hose ports over each shoulder. The included 70 oz (2 liter) OMEGA™ HydroTanium Reservoir with Lifetime Warranty and patented Ergo HydroLock is ideal for hydration on the go. Reflective strips on the front and back increase low-light visibility.

This product is not 'women specific' (like my current Nathan) but it allows for lots of adjusting. I am excited to try this out on Tuesday's 23 miler! I hope it performs as well as it looks!

Gotta run.

Oh crap! I didn't realize how much snow we were suppose to get on Tuesday. I'll have to get on the trail early.

Thanks Darek!

Juli... the pockets are very large! Almost like fanny packs on either side.
