What are you guys carrying in your pack for water purification ? I have been trying different things lately. I am always thinking lightweight for my pack.
So far, we tried the iodine crystals, and the sodium chlorite pills.
I plan on testing the survival straws in the next few weeks.
I read in another post some members suggested using Potassium permanganate. Has anyone tested this and does it turn your mouth purple

The straws will give you 20 gallons, suppliment that with pills and you've got safe drinking water for weeks, thats all you need for a small bag or vest, I have a Katdyne hiker as well.
