Carry small amounts and make sure you come across streams or springs. If you need large amounts make an animal carry it for you

Carrying water like that is fucking miserable, id only do that while homeless if I was going to freight hop and knew I'd be on there for a few days at a time and unsure about water.

Otherwise I'd get a normal bottle + a camelpak thing if your backpack supports it.
Depends on your route and how many fresh water streams there are, if there is plenty then just a random water bottle

Carry three 1 liter bottles. In pack and see how much you drink in a day.
Have alot of water left at end of day, carry less water. Don't have enough, carry more.
Best to know where to fill up water in your journey- houses, ponds, streams etc.
You should always have a little more than you'll use just to make you stronger and stronger

It's fine as long as the pond is in a sunny place and there isn't any algae or shit ton of sediment floating around. UV rays basically cook the top of the water and kill everything harmful

Next time you drink from a clear stream without a filter, get a little sample and get it under a microscope. Call up the community college or the country health department and tell them what you are doing and that someone told you to look at what you are drinking under a microscope. Film a "reacts video".

I think he’s calling them citifags because no one is filtering them boiling water (overkill, waste of fuel, takes forever, pain in the ass) and ponds are more likely to contain parasites. In this case “citifag” is just a stand in for “LARPer,” or “poser” if you grew up in the 80’s

Stick around a little. Maybe something will pique your interest and you’ll actually go outside.

Trusting a hobo for anything other than theft or drug use... yikes

Dude, Nalgene clipped to pack or belt + back up in pack, + small filter like a sawyer or a ultraviolet light for emergencies if you're doing an overnight.

SAN FRANCITYFAG HERE,

"SAWTOOTH LAKE"

THERE WAS LIKE A GLACIER? ON THE SIDE OF A MOUNTAIN, IT WAS MELTING AND I COLLECTED THE DRIP INTO MY WATER BOTTLE AND DRINKED IT

NO DIARREHA

I've done this but with a jetboiler. When i was aware that there was no water the following day i would boil up enough to fill the 3L and a bottle as well. It works fine, but if it is really hot and you're drinking more than a few litres a day, then boiling water is time consuming and annoying because of the heat of it when u transfer to your water supply. Using steel and making a fire is unrealistic assuming youre on a schedule. Usually i go where there are streams and rivers so it is irrelevant

When I backpack I carry one Nalgene and a 2l Hydraflask. I also carry a water sack to allow the sediment to settle out of the water before I filter (Colorado River water is often muddy).

When I'm just hiking I carry 2-4 qts in Nalgenes in my lumbar pack.

Filter and then boil? That’s excessive, either or would work by themselves.
