Whats in Your Camelback?

This post was inspired by Jill. Her story reminded me of another camelback that is filled with junk. mine. The majority of my friends have nothing good to say about my trusty backpack, that is until they need something from it. But any ways, I carry around a ton of stuff, partly because I like to be prepared, and partly because I'm to lazy to clean it out. So, here it goes, the contents of my camelback:



1 red Camelback M.U.L.E. sans bladder

1 Louis Garneau insulated shell jacket
1 pair of arm warmers
2 pairs of leg warmers
1 pair heavy wool socks

I would write a commentary on these items, but I think that it speaks for its self. This camelback has traveled literaly thousands of miles with me, been to above 14,000 feet at least 4 times, competed in one randonee race and has been my most constant companion on the majority of my adventures over the last several years.
