Love the White Mountains, but I wouldn’t drink the water unfiltered like this guy, unless I was truly desperate. People I know have picked up giardia and hep A.

- amluto 1y ago~0.1 micron water filters are pretty common, and they do not adequately protect against waterborne viruses like hep A (or polio). Get your vaccines!
- etrautmann 1y agoYeah there are plenty of new filter bottles that you can just fill and drink from. There’s no downside and it works amazingly well. I like Katadyn but others work too. Drinking straight seems like an odd choice
