The Burden We Carry

Pack with water reservoir.

We each travel with really nice Gregory back packs that hold 3 liter water reservoirs.  A hose attaches to the reservoir that comes over our shoulder, connects to the shoulder strap and a nifty bite valve makes it easy to drink constantly.

Along with the contents listed below, our packs hold layers for various temperatures.  Arm and leg warmers, 2 different jackets and a variety of gloves are either being worn or stowed in our packs.
