Ever find yourself gazing at your hunting gear in the off season, longing to be out in the field? Well the Epoch backpack hydration system is precisely the kind of gear that inspires those feelings. It was born to hunt.

The Epoch is one rugged customer when put to the test. Yet it's capable of being very quiet, thanks to the low-noise fabric Gerber uses. Plus, the side pockets are very accessible, and the zippers are super-easy to grip.

And alongside the 750 cubic inches of interior cargo area, Gerber offers the patent-pending Liquifusion™ reservoir system. The only such system in the world that is genuinely dishwasher safe. Add to that, the semi-rigid construction conforms to the contours of your spine.
