Hi everyone,
I'll be doing a through-hike of the Paria River Canyon next month, and was wondering what folks would recommend as optimal water purification system? I have different types of gear mostly geared for alpine (Steripen, Sawyer Squeeze) and don't mind just using treatment tabs, but figured someone here would have suggestions on what is most convenient given the springs, the possible need to filter from the river, etc. Seems like carrying one decent sized empty container for dirty water to help get rid of silt is a no-brainer?
Thanks,
Mike
