[pct-l] Inline Filters
Hey Joanne, I remember Hawkeye ( PCT 2000) having a regular " Fram" gas
filter used inline on his platipus bag. ( Made for some 70's style Datson
Pickup) Looked cool and you see the paper element inside. Not sure if it's
much better than drinking through a coffee filter, but Hawkeye has 3 or 4
thru-hikes under his belt and seems work to for him. My pump -type filter
is around 11ozs. and a pain to haul. I have seen the little screw in type
filters that go in your water bottle and may be good. Walkon's sports bottle
filter is a good choice and after the desert, you can do with chemicals
instead if in doubt. So on your way for gas -line anti-freeze for your stove
, pick up a Fram . ( At least a small gas gas filter may make a good
pre-filter for your pumper brand X filter)
