[QUOTE="Andy Backus, post: 1210653, member: 22127"] The water where I elk hunt in Colorado is very clean and I am often tempted to skip filtering. I almost broke down and did it last year. Later that day I traveled further up stream only to find a beaver pond. I've never gotten giardia but I've heard very bad things about it. I find pump filters to feel like a lot of work when I'm hunting at high elevation. I've been using the [URL="http://amzn.to/28KVG2L"]SteriPen Ultra[/URL] and I really like how quick and easy it is with no physical effort. You need to use a wide-mouth water bottle like a Nalgene so it's not the best if you use a water bladder (which I don't). [/QUOTE]
