MDinana Pooh-Bah Registered: 03/08/07 Posts: 2208 Loc: Beer&Cheese country	I do have a small fanny pack that I got on clearance from REI last year. It has 2 16oz bottles that flank a very small, triangular shaped pocket. It carries: altoid tin PSK, heat sheet, AMK 0.3 FAK, and usually a LM on the belt. There's just enough room to cram in my digital camera and a power bar if I really over load it. In other words, just the bare essentials, and tops out at what... 5 lbs max? Otherwise, it's a daypack, which is usually too big for a little extra gear. http://www.rei.com/product/762546

There's a special pack for hurting students? I always have to improvise with any lab equipment lying around. The problem with carrying any reasonable sized water bottles in a lumber pack is that they either hang to far off the back or swing around too much - that looks like the ideal solution. LOL, yeah... that should have read "a hurting student's pack _________________________ "Trust in God --and press-check. You cannot ignore danger and call it faith." -Duke

I will be using the Strappettes this weekend on the pack when I go hiking and the weekend after when I will be spectating at the Ironman race in town. _________________________ Don't just survive.
