Gear review: CamelBak Palos 4 LR pack

When you’re headed for blissful hiking or biking trails, do you resent having to carry a backpack?

Part of the Low Rider MTB collection from CamelBak, the Palos is designed to carry the water weight and cargo weight on the hips, lowering your center of gravity and increasing stability.

The waist pack design allows you to bring along enough gear for a half-day excursion, while allowing your upper body to move and stay cool on hot days.

Inside the water reservoir pocket, compression webbing help keep the water weight secure throughout the ride, as the volume decreases with your every sip.
