It’s amazing how many people don’t make much of an effort to clean their outdoor gear. Jackets go unwashed, boots stay muddy, and other items simply left uncared for altogether. But, if we want our gear to continue to function at a high level it is important that we spend some time maintaining and cleaning that equipment. Take our hydration reservoirs for instance. Over time, excess moisture can cause all kinds of issues inside the bladder and tubes that make up the reservoir, making it important that we keep it clean. This video shows you exactly how to do that and provides proper instructions for carefully restoring your reservoir to its proper functioning order.
