Portable Water Filter Eliminates Need To Carry Heavy Bottles
Sunday, December 16th, 2007Hikers and campers have learned that it is easier and more convenient to carry a portable water filter than it is to carry a lot of heavy bottles of water. Having enough clean, pure water while hiking or camping is an important health consideration and filling up buckets from a nearby lake or stream may not be the safest way to supply the needs. Regardless of how clean the water may appear, it should be filtered before drinking if not boiled to kill any disease-causing bacteria floating around in the water.
