The Basics
For longer duration activities, maintaining proper hydration is essential for health and performance
Personal preference and duration dictates whether you want a hand-held bottle, waist pack, or backpack
Hand-held bottles use a strap to alleviate the need to constantly grip the bottle
Single bottle waist packs allow for the transport of 20 - 26 ounces of one type of beverage with additional storage capacity for small essentials
Dual bottle waist packs double the fluid capacity of single bottle waist packs
Multiple bottle waist packs allow for distribution of fluid weight as well as the ability to carry more than one type of beverage; usually some storage capacity is also provided for small essentials
Backpacks use a large capacity, 40 - 80 ounce bladder with a drink tube; well-suited for trekking and all-day activities
