great bottle for the backcountry

By garrett Ranked #1556 - Water Bottles June 6, 2007

on a recent backpacking trip, i decided to leave the nalgene at home in lieu of a 1L platypus and some plastic bottles. in the future, i will plan on taking only platypii (?) - they are incredibly lightweight and portable (you can roll it up when you're not using it) and is great in the backcountry. my only qualms are that it can be kind of top heavy when filtering into it - making it easy to lose all the fresh water if it falls. also - it is very difficult to dry out completely when you get home, it holds condensation like no one's business. nevertheless - an incredible asset when backpacking for the price. highly recommended.
