    I've got nearly the same set up, but I use the Hydrapak seeker instead of the big BeFree bag. Comes in a two, three, and six litre variant. I use a couple of microbiners to clip it for extra security when scrambling. SOS has all the sizes in Courtenay. Much easier to carry, better shape, easy to fill, and it has a lid. The Flux bottles are pretty nice too if I don't need as much extra capacity, the bail handle is great for sticking it in streams.

    Wow you found a way to essentially adapt the BeFree to work like the Salomon XA filter. Good stuff!

      ya and the nozzle angle is better too for drinking

    Massively underrated channel! Love your content! :) I have been using this exact setup with with the soloman filter, I'll try the katedyn with the straw!

      the salomon one is similar i just had 2 katadyns ans most people have the katadyn. The one benefit is the angled bite nozzle vs salomons is vertical

    Thanks! This is great and I'm going to try some of your tips this summer. I'm taking my very first backpacking trip TOMORROW.
    I've been trying different hydration on training day hikes, thinking I was a back hydration reservoir devotee. My setup: 2 liters on my back + a .7 liter Vapur for cooking water + a 4L Platypus gravity filter. It was...rough lol. I switched to the 1 L Katadyn and that was my first win. Where I'm hiking, there are 4 good water sources in 8 miles, so I'm carrying the empty Katadyn to "camel up" my body at water sources if needed + a liter plastic bottle of water with powder electroytes. It occurred to me that I should try a HydraPak for reusability and I'm glad to see someone else with the same idea. Excited to see how this goes, but I'm feeling confident. Thanks for listening if you read this far :)

      good luck Judy hope it all goes well. You'll know after that first trip what things you want to change and there will be things just expect that

      nalgene bottles are heavy and only fit in the side of the pack which is why i dont go that route

    Noice. My new setup: I attach a Onewind ridgeline bag on each side (cheap and weighs nothing) near my ribs (one end on the bag, other on shoulder strap) and use a 1 litre platypus softbottle with smartwater sports cap. I filter with Sawyer squeeze and Vecto 2 litre bag, and fit a Sawyer tube adapter on clean end that snaps right into the sports cap. I can comfortably carry 2 litres plus another 2 litres in the Vecto for camp or the kids. On hot days cool water resting right on my ribs provides an amazing heat sink effect.

    How well does the straw work when the water gets below the level of the filter? I assume you're sucking water up through the filter, but the filter doesn't extend to the bottom of that bottle. So is there some magic I'm not seeing, or do you need to invert the bottle to drink the second half of the water? Loved the video- quite well thought out!

    • @IdRatherBeHiking
      @IdRatherBeHiking  3 місяці тому

      great question, its just the same as the salomon xa filter in that you'll start sucking half air half water but if you squeeze the bag the water gets sucked up. when it gets that low its easier to pull it out and tip it downward and suck the water out just like a normal soft running flask bottle.

    Why don't you just hydrapaks water filter and the 1.5 liter bottle. I had these on my setup butI found the bottles to not be ridgid enough and they'd flop around. Now their filter with the 1.5L bottle is the tits, lol. I can fill two half liter bottles and have enough to cook my meal too. Hydrapak has come a longs ways in just a few years!!!

    • @IdRatherBeHiking
      @IdRatherBeHiking  3 місяці тому

      I already had 2 katadyn filters eventually ill try out the hydrapak one and the salomon one as well as that 1.5L bottle

    • @WoodAllTrails

      @@IdRatherBeHiking katadyn are awesome, hydrapak and katadyn are basically the same as the filter goes.

      It all comes in one set. They come with the long nozzle that he used from the longer tube attachment and the regular nozzle. I had these and didn't find them ridgid enough for me so I switched back to smart bottles to carry my water in. Their filter system is awesome though. It is basically the same as the befree and comes with a 1.5L bottle for it.

    • @IdRatherBeHiking

    Drinking straight from the stream is about the worst advice you could give. It could literally kill somebody someday.
