    Camelbak probs

    I recall reading that somebody complained about the new Camelbaks being (almost?) impossible to open.

    We've had our Camelbak Rogues for a few weeks and the seal is tight, but not impossible. But this morning? I can't get EITHER of them open, and I want to take a ride. Waaah!

    Has anybody ever had them "lock down" on them where they wouldn't open? What do you do?

    (I did express water out of the tube in case it was a suction thing, but that didn't help.)

    Help!

    Arrrgh. My wrist hurts from trying, but I've let it rest now so I'll go try again. Thanks.

    Actually it's my thumb that hurts, not my wrist.

    You could try running it under cold water and see if that changes anything.

    I know what you mean about your thumb hurts- it's like the screw cap is made for someone left handed to open.

    Bah, humbug. I finally just wore it as is and sipped two day old water.

    I know, I know.

    Sigh.
