I own a Camelbak M.U.L.E. but just bought a "High Siera" Drench.

See it he

I prefer it over the MULE. It has more space, pockets, etc. It has a
huge
channel running up the back for airflow. Waist strap and sternum
strap,
insulated drinking tube. Best of all, it was only $20.00 at Sam's
Club.

I wonder how the drinking tube is comparing the two brands...
along with the mouth water release fixture ?

Everywhere seems to have the Camelbak,
but have not found a High Sierra anything...
I may have to break down and order one online just to see it -

Are you near a Sam's Club? I'm not sure if they all have the same
stuff.

The actual drinking tube is the same on both. The mouthpiece is
different. You can purchase a Camelbak mouthpiece for around $6.00
and use it on the High Sierra. I know because I have my old Camelbak
Big Bite valve on there now. There was nothing wrong with the High
Seirra mouthpiece per say, just that the Camelbak had a higher flow
rate so it's
easier to get more water at any given time.

There are a few on EBay at this moment. I am not connected in any way
with the seller.
