Currently MSR is not manufacturing the Sweetwater Walkabout Filter or Element. The only option is finding it on Ebay or similar website. Cascade Designs, the parent company of MSR, should have a .pdf of the instructions. Good luck finding a filter cartridge! Although the Walkabout is a descent filter (subpar to many of the current filters available however), the best option would be to purchase another filter due to the fact that finding another cartridge will rear its ugly head again. The complete MSR Sweetwater Filter will cost more than a replacement cartridge for the Walkabout (if you can find one), but it's filter element is readily available.

I would just give MSR a call at (800) 531-9531 they would be able to most likely get you that part as well as provide you with instructions.
