Water Filtration for Family Backpacking

Water Filtration for Family Backpacking



Not all the water sources in the backcountry need to be treated or filtered, but it’s not always easy to tell the difference with the naked eye.

We used to carry a heavy gravity feed system that worked well for shorter hikes where we would set up a base camp. When we started hiking loops and thru-hikes we needed to come up with something lightweight and convenient. Our solution was to use individual in-line filters from Sawyer Products.

In this video we share with you our families strategy for water filtration for camping, backpacking, or hiking. This is how we do it, and a a few things to watch out for.

Thanks for watching.

How To Make a Water Filter In The Wild

How To Make a Water Filter In The Wild



Disclaimer. This water filter will not make the water SAFE. It will only render it clear and make it more palatable. you must boil it afterwards or use another form of proper disinfection. SODIS or Solar Disinfection would work.

In this video I go through the processes of constructing a primitive filter utilizing natural recourses such as charcoal from a fire, moss, and sand. I use a soda bottle as the filter container to show you the individual layers and to see the water seep through the layers.
