Water filter setup upgrade
Posted: Thu Sep 16, 2021 6:54 pm
I try to make an upgrade to my gear after each trip. This summer there was much complaining on our water setup for a five-some. So I went out and bought a silicone gravity bag. It scopes water quick, holds a gallon and half, and attached right to the Sawyer filter barb fitting.
It was super sweet. Cheap. No issues. Filters while you work in something else or eat. With the hose it makes nearly a four foot water column, thus good pressure.
The only issue was it did not balance inside a nalgene. I have an extra lid in the cart and will drill it to thread directly to the Sawyer and make a solid connection.
Pm for an Amazon link.
Maybe a picture will follow.
