OMG, I'll have to think a little to top that one! However a Desert Reprobate, a Curmudgeon, and a Trailryder42 all working together might just possibly be barely able to keep a TZQ under control.Originally Posted by Taozenqi

Love your enemies, but keep your gun oiled!
I am a CONCENTRATED vegetarian. I let the cows eat all the grass, and then I eat the cows!

Got my last bit of gear for the trip.
I hope that flask is big enough for the job!

TR42,
Soooo, you're turning on me too?? It's great to have friends...
Hope you don't forget the snake for that "snake bite cure."
P.S. - LAST BIT of GEAR??!!! Who you trying to fool?
Do you imagine the universe is agitated?

Ok, ok, you got me. I "did" just spring for one of those Platypus Gravity Works water filter kits. To possibly replace my Katadyn pump.
I got one of those "magic" SteriPens to hopefully replace my Katydyn pump. What do you guys think of that option for lighter weight? Like TR42, I'm looking for a little lighter weight. With the extremely heavy people pressure this area receives, I'm a little more leary of the water quality than I normally would be in our mountains.

If this is the way you treat your friends how do you treat people you do not like?
Hey, just ordered a cuben tarp so I can hang with the kool kids this summer.
It ain't what you don't know that gets you into trouble. It's what you know for sure that just ain't so.

I researched reports and reviews on both the Steripen and the gravity systems. I came away with the concensus that the Steripen is ok for a back up system, but it's susceptibility of taking a crap on you doesn't make it a good primary water treatment/filter system.
The people that have posted those reports and had that experience with the Steripen may be relatively small, but it's just my luck I'd be one of them.
I've been using a filter as primary and chlorine drops as back up.
