Pros: don't have to spit out the hose water before taking a sip in the summer. Maybe won't freeze til it's really cold in winter, but probably still have to tuck the valve under the jacket to avoid having it freeze up.

Cons: won't fit in my Camelbak pack, but will fit in my Walmart hydration packs and Kelty daypack.

Side note about the Walmart hydration bladders: both had valves thad dribble on your leg/belly nonstop. Only suitable in the summer.
Do tell. I’m going to Decathlon tomorrow morning, in order to try and save the 2-3 week wait for Amazon shipping. It likely arrives in country quite quickly, and then is loaded onto the mule train to Merida,
