Water purification bottle: Gotta have clean water

At the top of my camping list is clean drinking water. If you are going on a long camping trip or are going camping in an unfamiliar area, a purification bottle is necessary to make sure you have the clean drinking water you need.



Water purification bottles are not difficult to use and weigh a lot less then bringing jugs of water. The purification tablets are not expensive and are available at most sports equipment stores and online.

The tablets kill germs and bacteria that are naturally in rivers, streams, and lakes, and make the water clean enough to drink. I would never want to get caught without fresh water so a water purification bottle is on the top of my list.
