Went up to Helvellyn ( 1st time up ) on Tuesday 22/01/19 in real deep snow , met two good lads en route to the summit and back .
I had with me - also to try for the first time a EVOC insulated hydration pack/bladder 2L only purchased in December less than 2/3 rds of the way up the tube and mouth piece froze rendering this pretty useless are any of these bladders any use at sub zero temperatures ( without having to case them in foil and or further pipe type insulation materials) ?
