THE BEST BACKPACKING WATER FILTERS OF 2020

Written By: Kristen Bor

A backpacking water filter is a key essential for any multi-day outdoor adventure. Why is a water filter so important? Parasites and viruses live in the lakes and rivers that you rely on to stay hydrated in the backcountry. Giardia is the most common and can cause abdominal cramping, nausea, diarrhea,  and vomiting – not exactly what you had planned for your next adventure, right?

Wengine wanasema kuwa huna haja ya kuchuja maji ambapo mito hulishwa na theluji safi, lakini kumbuka kuwa ikiwa mifugo, wanyamapori, au wanadamu wanaweza kufikia eneo, kwa hivyo wanaweza kuchafua ambayo huhamishwa kupitia suala la fecal.

In this roundup of the best backpacking water filters, we’ll walk you through the key factors to consider when choosing one and share our favorite recommendations for your next adventure, whether it’s a quick weekend backpacking trip, a car camping expedition or a long-distance thru-hike!

Nadharia ya Bearfoot

Maelezo ya vyombo vya habari kutoka kwa Nadharia ya Bearfoot

Blogu ya kusafiri ya nje kwenye dhamira ya kuhamasisha na kukuwezesha kutoka nje na seti ya ustadi mkubwa

Hujambo! Mimi ni Kristen. Shukrani kwa ajili ya kuacha! Ikiwa unapenda kusafiri na kutumia muda nje, umefika mahali pazuri. Mimi ni hapa kuhamasisha wewe kupata huko nje na kukusaidia kupanga adventure yako ijayo.

Nilianza Nadharia ya Bearfoot kwa sababu nilitaka kuondoa hadithi ambazo zinazuia watu wengi kutoka nje. Kama marehemu nje ya maua mwenyewe, nimepata ni rahisi kutishwa na tovuti za adventure na majarida ambayo yanaangazia watu wakiruka kutoka kwa miamba na darasa la kayaking 5 rapids. Unaweza kufikiria, "ikiwa ndivyo ilivyo nje, basi hiyo sio mimi!"

Lakini niko hapa kukuambia kuwa sio lazima uwe na hatari ya kuchukua, junkie ya adrenaline kuwa na likizo ya nje ya kushangaza. Pia hauitaji gia ghali zaidi, kupanga kwa wiki mwishoni, au kufanya mambo ambayo ni zaidi ya kiwango chako cha faraja.

Ujumbe wangu na Nadharia ya Bearfoot ni kuwa chanzo cha msukumo na habari kwa watu wa kila siku wanaotafuta kuwa na uzoefu halisi wa nje. Nitakuonyesha kuwa maisha ya nje ni rahisi, ya gharama nafuu, kupatikana, na ya kufurahisha. Nitashiriki nawe maeneo ninayopenda ya nje ya njia ya Magharibi (na mara kwa mara mahali pengine), kukuambia ni gia gani unayofanya na hauitaji, na kukusaidia kujenga ujasiri zaidi katika uwezo wako wa nje.
