» desertblue - i so need a filter
I really need to start using a filter. they are so much easier than they use to be. the truth is I am both lazy and don't like the weight, so I use iodine tabs. but a filter would be nice on international trips, even in cities. a filter would also be nice on cruises and airplanes, where the tap wwater is questionable.
nice article btw.

I took my filter pump on a trip to the Russian Far East and it was super valuable. I don't think we would have survived the water!

Yes, they are pretty handy. If you have settled on a model, check out outdoorreview.com, to see what people who have tried it say about it.
