The Little Water Filter That Lets Me Drink Stream Water
As someone who has designed their life around hiking, I drink a lot of water. But I don’t particularly like carrying it.
Water is heavy, over 2 pounds per liter, and its weight adds up quickly. I used to carry a day’s worth on my hikes — sometimes in a bladder, sometimes in bottles, but it was heavy all the same. I consider myself frugal, but as Wirecutter’s outdoor writer, I’m also always in search of a better way, and I know that sometimes that means buying something. If a purchase would allow me to be a little more efficient or redirect my attention from faffing over my gear to smelling the roses or covering trail miles, I am likely to pay up.

Why use a plastic bag when you can simply screw on this end cap, specifically designed for Sawyer water filters?

In future, I’ll use gravity when I can, and squeeze when I have to.

For longer hikes, it’s convenient to carry a small backcountry water filter, such as a Sawyer Mini or Micro, which allows you to replenish your water from natural sources like streams or ponds.
