Somewhere around your third trip pumping water by hand for six thirsty people, you start fantasising about a system that just… does it for you.

A gravity water filter for large groups is a hands-free filtration kit — typically a “dirty” reservoir bag connected by tubing to a filter and a clean container — that uses only the pull of gravity to turn stream, tap-uncertain, or festival-tap water into something a dozen thirsty people can safely drink without a single … Read more

This is the exact … Read more
There’s a specific kind of misery reserved for the moment you realise, three miles into a hike, that your water bottle is rattling around empty at the bottom of your bag underneath a squashed banana.
