Great video mate. In my water kit I carry a Sawyer Mini, Iodine based purification tabs, a few dozen coffee filters, and have means of boiling. I've recently become certified in Wilderness Life Support and read in the studies that Chlorine based tablets offer a slightly higher degree of killing the nasties than Iodine. When possible, employ all 3/4 methods to gain potable water.

i will add some coffee filters thank you buddy. valuable info that pal.

[@WyeExplorer]

Water is life bro - good to have your water kit sorted. ETA sounds the alarm but in fact is fantastic. I'll look out for that. Re - the Sawyer I've always used it on mult-day with no complaints. It's always at the top of my sack too. Nothing worse than routing around for your water gear when a source comes along. Thanks old mate. Great video. Mark

[@outsidertank]

Yes mark. Always at the top of the pack. Thanks for watching Mark. Much appreciated mate 🙏

[@WyeExplorer]

I used to swear by the Water To Go filter bottle. Filters everything except salt. Just couldn't quench your thirst with it cos it took ages to pass through the filter. Expensive dust gatherer now

[@robertbradfield4810]

Would you use water from a horse/cow trough after filtering?

[@outsidertank]

Why wouldn't you ?

[@robertbradfield4810]

Quite often see bugs and slim in it

[@baronedipiemonte3990]

It's waste (fecal & urine - animal & human) that cause the most illnesses, as well as other natural contaminates (rotting carcasses). Unless you positively know that sick animals have drank from the trough, I'd use it... and use all 3 methods of purification - boiling, filter, tablets

[@outsidertank]

@@robertbradfield4810 that's what the filters are for..

[@robertbradfield4810]

Yep you're right, think it's a mental thing as drummed in to me as a kid 'never drink from a trough' 🤷

[@dadgad68]

Great video buddy. Important topic. I'm going to have to ad to my kit. Many thanks as always.

[@outsidertank]

Your welcome buddy..

[@simonsolo7750]

Just subscribed. You provide some really useful information 👍. I've got a KZbin channel but only have 126 subscribers. I'm enjoying it though. Thanks keep up the good work 👏.

[@outsidertank]

thank you simon, i shall return the favour thanks pal..

[@Glinteye]

If your just using purification tabs i always take some coffee machine filters and double or triple them up to help with the turbidity, you can get collapsible silicone funnels to help with pouring into small bottles also.

[@outsidertank]

yes somebody also mentioned coffee filters nice one brother awesome suggestion im on it..

[@stevenrichard7384]

Great video mucker awesome kit keep up the great videos best on KZbin 👍

[@outsidertank]

Aye myself and a few merthyr angling association guys did a litter pick there a month back, sad to see it back in a state.

[@RichardColeman-i3r]

Okay, where is this guy from? The accent is difficult to place. Good channel though.

[@outsidertank]

@@bafumat Hello 👋 I'm from Wales G.B...

[@bafumat]

@@outsidertank okay. I knew it wasn't a typical GB accent. Here in Texas we don't get many of y'all anyhow. I'll bet the rain gear is way more important to you guys. Ha!

[@outsidertank]

@bafumat yes indeed it's always wet here haha...
