I'm looking to replace a 70oz bladder. Dimensions listed for all 3 sizes are the same on this page. Will a 3L pack fit comfortably in place of a 70?

A quick google search shows 70 oz. is just over 2 liters. The 2L is 8" x 15.6".

It should fit in my estimation. With the bladder full it will be snug. Probably about 3 quarters of an inch on each side of extra space. The length should be plenty big enough. Almost like it was made for something that size in the largest pocket. I would go for it

I got Hawkins 3 liter classic, and it works perfectly. A suggestion, check your local grocery store like India Bazaar or something you may find it cheaper over there.

I bought a large and my pack is 80L. I think they only offered large when I bought mine though. My pack fits in the large with extra room. If you were looking for a more snug fit a medium might be the better option. I would just buy both and return the size you don't want after you try both of them out. Good luck

I use an MSR 3L Hyrdomedary bag in this pack. MSR Hydromedary Bag, 3 Liter (Red)

No you have to buy bladder separately. I bought the Osprey bladder off Amazon. I think they have 2 or 3L ones.

It really should as it's the same size as all my other 3L bladders except for the slide thing at the top is a little wide - I just fold it over and zip the carrier closed.

I have a 70oz/2.0L and with my pack fully loaded it is a snugg fit, but it works fine. i wasn't able to fill it 100%, closer to 85% or so. i was worried it would bust if i filled it all the way. hope this helps.

It should; a medium might be a little too big. I use the M on a 70-liter pack and there's plenty of wiggle room.

There are 2 condor hydro packs on amazon you have to make sure you order the one with better reviews that's the one I got and works good. I don't like the Velcro hangers for the pack for a 3L bladder but they workish.

Yes and no. I have three different camelback bladders with their prospective carrying cases. I've found that the multicam insulated hydration carrier for the 3L is an incredibly tight squeeze. The ACU pattern non-insulated carrier fits just fine (similar to SI camelback). And the 2.5L bladder non-insulated carrier fits very easily as well with room to spare. I think it is largely dependant upon if you intend to place the carrier AND the bladder inside the flap or just the bladder. Hope that helps.

I'm not sure of the sizes, long or short, but it comes with the 3 liter (102oz) Ambush Reservoir and line.

I do not use, and am not personally familiar with, the ILBE Gen 2 Main Pack, but several of the answers to the same question you are asking about this item in its Amazon.com listing says it is compatible with hydration bladders. One even includes the web address for a video on this topic. I would suggest you read through the information about the ILBE Gen 2 Main Pack on Amazon.com. and hope this referral is helpful to you. I use the Condor 3-Day Assault Pack, which can accommodate two (2) Camelbak 100 oz/ 3.0 L hydration bladders. I stopped carrying two hydration bladders in it to reduce the weight of the fully loaded pack, and use the "extra" space in the hydration section to hold one Camelbak 100 oz/ 3.0 L hydration bladder, its cleaning kit, extra in-line charcoal filter cartridges for my Camelbak in-line filter (to remove "funky flavors" from the water), a Sawyer Products Mini-Filter and accessories (to filter out microscopic "critters" in water from "unknown natural" sources when refilling the hydration bladder), a back-up drinking tube (in case my primary drinking tube gets cut or damaged), a LifeStraw personal water filter, and a military personal reverse osmosis water filtration system. All This extra gear weighs a lot less than an additional 3.0 L of water and hydration bladder, and it gives me the ability to safely drink pretty much any water I encounter and safely refill my hydration bladder over and over. As the old philosopher once said, "Show a man how to carry an extra 3.0 liters of water, and you'll get him through the next day. Show him how to make any water he finds safe to drink, and he will have water for the rest of his life". . . . or maybe he was talking about fishing.

Hi Gnome, you should be good to go on the text books and (light)jacket. As to the question about the nalgene bottle, the quart would not fit but the 24oz. should. But let me ask, why are you using a bottle when the pack accommodates up to 100oz bladder? You need to measure the books and then check w/ the measurements I list for you here; Main Compartment: 17.5"(H) x 14"(W) x 6.5"(D)Upper Front Pouch: 5.5"(H) x 9"(W) x 2"(D)Lower Front Pouch: 8"(H) x 9"(W) x 2.5"(D)Approximate Overall Capacity: 1950 cu. in. / 32 LHydration: Fits up to 100 oz / 3L Reservoir (sold separately).

No way....max 1.5L in a single bladder.... Maybe you can squeeze in 2 X 500ml bladder.

Each bladder holds 4L. However, one is for dirty water and should not be used for drinking.

over time I have switched to other bladders. My favorite right now is http://www.geigerrig.com/. I have tried Camelbaks and Platypus bags but I find the geigerrig's ability to turn inside out the easiest to clean and keep dry. The problem with the sawyer bags are they are hard to keep clean and the handles/small hole at the bottom tear under full weight of water (or maybe a bit more if you hang it wrong) so they become (imo) worthless. If I had to do it all over again, i would just order the filter and make my own system with it. Just my .02
