Something for all to try, While working hives in the apariy and being in
the middle of a hot hive, all of a suden THIRST, I've started using
a 'camel pack' similar to what the military is using.  Looks like a back-
pack, mine holds 2-liters of fluid and fits under my coveralls, they have
a 'on demand' vaulve it comes out in front and can be coiled in your veil
w/no problem and can be bought at most sporting stores, I got mine at BIG 5
SPORTS and paid around $20.00, I think that all bee keepers w/more than 2-
hives should invest in one as they seem to be a lifesaver where dehydration
is a problem.
