>>345740>steel bottles don't crack. they only dent unless you're deliberately trying to puncture them.You know, steel bottles are not some magical bullshit artifact, crafted from Thors hammer and fairy tears. They will break if sufficient force is applied and so will a Nalgene. Do you throw your bottles down a mountain? It's amusing how you think a Nalgene will break like an egg if it drops down the table or while walking.
>try putting just plain water into a nalgeneI try it next time.
>it varies by brand, but there is absolutely no need to carry the 6-8oz that a nalgene weighs. on a long/technical hike, every unnecessary oz matters.Let's take a look the another popular bottle and you too
