CamelBak Backcountry Hydration Backpack Review

CamelBak backcountry hydration backpack

During Outdoor Retailer in January, I posted about CamelBak's new backcountry hydration backpack– the Roulette for women and the Pit Boss for men.  After the show, CamelBak was nice enough to send me the women's version to try out.
