I'm looking for a Camelback trouble is will be buying off the net so won't be able to see it.

I'm not sure which size to get. I want to be able to have room for some spares, tools, and coat etc. So nothing tiny or that big I could fit a small child I'n it.

What do you guys recommend

    i have been looking the camelbak mule seems the best all round size for trail riding with enough room for a coat as well.

    I've got the H.A.W.G. I took a gamble and ordered one online a while back and it was so good that I upgraded to the new model of H.A.W.G. when it came out.

    I only recently found out that H.A.W.G. stands for Holds A lot of Water and Gear.

    The compression straps are really well placed and I never suffer from the pack bouncing about. Well vented too.

    I use a camelback lobo.
    Plenty big enough for a pump, spares, tools etc. Not quite enough room for a coat though, but as its half the weight of the mule, cheaper and holds the same amount of water(3L), I thought it was the best option.

    I have a MULE.
    I find it big enough to fit all the essentials in with room to share.
    It is also fairly waterproof (I tested this by submerging it and myself into a river, deliberatly of course).
    It never appears to be over or underfilled and can easily be adjusted to fit snugly onta a back with minimal irritating movement.
