I recently discovered the Arc'tyrex Quiver Pack (can't do links) on the net and was wandering if anyone had used or seen one. I can't find it in my area to look at but I really like that it's hydration compatible, looks like it could fend off some weather and it's sling style.

I just need enough space for a few small items. I enjoy walking in good or bad, but not dangerous, weather so water resistance is a consideration. Any thoughts?

No comment on the pack but I did your job, HERE is the link.

BTW, if you want to provide links it's easy. Click on reply lower in this frame (not Quick Reply). The link tool is the first button to the left (the little world with the chain link picture) and then just add the URL you copied from the webpage. Text can be anything you want that's descriptive.

If you're not trying to carry large square objects, this looks like it could be a pretty decent pack. I used to carry one similar to it, bit its triangular shape didn't work so well for carrying text books so I converted back to a regular back pack. Also this one seems to be a little more rectangular than mine was.

I have a Camelbak Mule which comes with a 100 oz bladder. I found it ideal for EDC gear (maxi-kit), but not much else. If all I needed was the 10 Essentials (water, FAK, fire making kit, trash bags et al) it was okay, but not big enough for additional clothing other than a pair of socks and maybe a long underwear top. Recently I found a Camelbak Rim Runner which has the same 100 oz bladder but a lot more room for additional bulky items. Rim Runner Reviews
