[Cdt-l] Water purification

[Brian Dickson]

We used Aquamira drops last year on the CDT and thought they were excellent, with no stomach problems. They are lightweight, cheapish ($10 for maybe 3 weeks), no taste and easy to use as well. The web sites I checked before hiking indicated that they are effective against Giardia and crypto which were our main concerns.

I would use Aquamira again.

Mags,

Ok ..... stoves!

I have never used any stove except my pepsi can alcohol stove for all  
my long distance hikes. While on the subject of stoves I used the  
freezer bag cooking system on the PCT.
