hands down, the best

May 21, 2008
Spent 8 nights backpacking in the Weminuche Wilderness in the San Juan mountains. We were with our High Adventure troop 9650. Everyone else had the MSR Miniworks. My son & I used the Hiker, & we were always done pumping water way before any of the others. Everyone wanted to borrow our filter. This is the PUR version, but I don't think they changed anything but the name when Katadyn got it. Buy it, you won't be disappointed
