Backcountry Water Systems - A Look At My Past & Current Setup

If you don't have 5 liters clean water a day in the backcountry, then your hunt is over. Over the years, my water system has evolved, and will likely continue to evolve. In this video, I walk through a couple of options and discuss how I try to ensure that I have enough water for my needs everyday of my hunt.

Been a gravity filter guy for years. Just switched to the pen and Nalgene’s as my only option because I don’t have to worry about tubes and bags… and I lost an extra 1lb or more off my water system. No worrying about freezing or filters getting clogged up. Fast and easy.

Yeah, I hear ya…but I will always want a filter of some sort. Best of luck this season!

Great options

I run the cnoc 2L bag for dirty water with the platypus filter, paired with the steripen ultralight. I carry a GSI microlite 1000 for my water on the go. Auquamira in case of an emergency, and i have a 3L and 4L HydraPaks bags if i need extra water storage.

Sounds like a great system!

GRAYL is a game changer!

Ehhh….how is different than a bottle with a filter? And, it’s a bit more expensive. I just don’t see it…but I’m glad it works for you and have heard good things. Best of luck this year!
