So out overnight and below zero you have no issues with the hose freezing? That is correct no problems.

Lol, sounds right. I know of no one that uses bladders in sustained, real cold. Too problematic. Not sure about Kilimanjaro, never been. Doesn’t sound very severe so they might be fine. I’ll defer to your “hose clearing” experience in this case. I just know in sustained single digits and lower they’re useless, and that’s not a guess.  I agree. In fact, I’ve hunted in enough sustained cold to need to thaw conventional Nalgene bottles with a fire multiple times a day. Crack the lid on a factory Gatorade bottle and watch the liquid freeze immediately before your eyes. Water bladders in the cold are completely useless. One such hunt. ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/kvpkIIX.jpg)
