This is Marmot’s biggest hydration daypack, coming stocked with a 3-liter reservoir. In addition to a hike’s worth of H2O, Active Junky testers comfortably stashed a DSLR camera, rain jacket, long sleeve t-shirt, bag lunch and other small essentials with room to spare. “It’s got a hydration sleeve AND two water bottle holders,” said one tester, “which is rare and appreciated in a hydration pack.” From day hikes and photo missions to climbing forays into Front Country crags (the 28L size fit a tester’s sport climbing rack), Aquifier shined as both a serious thirst quencher and a burly load carrier. Big ups to Marmot for the hefty hip belt and ventilation channel that encourage longer, harder objectives.
