Right Choice, Not Too Spendy

By Andrew Brandt Ranked #249 - Water Treatment June 29, 2009

I know that skimping on something as fundamental as drinking water is a bad thing, but at the same time I researched before purchasing this filter to try and get the best coverage and functionality for the least amount of money. The Katadyn Hiker struck that balance. The filter created clear tasty water out of beaver poop lake water, and the little floaty bobber allowed me to keep the intake off the bottom of the shallows. Helpful hint to those who like me didn't already know that might allow one to buy the Hiker over the Hiker pro would be to use a piece of t-shirt over the intake if the water looks really gunked up to help as a front line against the larger grit.
