Excited about a new Camelbak.

Was just seeing if there's anything new with Camelbak... and there is:

It's what I've been looking for a for a long time... an REI Flash 18 that's a true hydration pack with mesh pockets outside - all in a minimalist, simple set up.

I like it. Will likely give it a try this summer.

Thumbs up Camelbak!

It does look almost same as the REI flash 18. I got 4 flash 18 packs. They are just the right size for a day hike or if you take your 11 year old niece with you geocaching. I can see this pack getting to be very popular but they should drop the price down as the Flash is almost half the price new. If you buy them on used sale you pick them up at around $7.

Seems like a pretty reasonable price to me, considering it comes with a 70oz reservoir and the flash 18 doesn't.
