I Love The Sawyer Squeeze Water Filtration System!!

Clean water is the most important item to have in any survival situation. You have to have clean water! You will not last if you do not have water and Sawyer Squeeze Water Filtration System is the easiest thing that I have found to use. The 0.1 Micron Absolute filter uses a pore size so small that it gets out the microscopic contaminants. No more bacteria, protozoa, or cysts. This means that you can get clean drinkable water from lakes, rivers, streams, and in any disaster situation. Also would be very handy if you travel abroad where it it sometimes hard to get good drinking water.  All you do is fill it with water and then squeeze it though the filter. You can drink it right from the filter's pop-up cap while it is connected to the pouch. Making this a great tool for hikers as well as anyone wanting a water filter for their bug-out bag.

The number one reason that I love this filter from Sawyer is the fact that you use a back washing system to clean the filter making this filter Guaranteed for life! If you use this water filter the right way and clean it the way it says than it will last you. No more buying new filters and no more worries about getting clean water.  I want one of these for each person in the family and for our bug-out bags. With the set up of this filter being so easy that my Little man can even do it, it is worth the investment.  You can also screw the filter onto any drinking bottle, like a 2 liter bottle. Good way to reuse an item for something that is needed.

To really get clean water for your family you have to have an easy and reliable way to filter the water. Something that is easy enough for the whole family to use. Something that doesn't need a lot of different attachments also. This Sawyer Squeeze Water Filtration System is the one to get. No more replacing filters and no more worries.

A Year In The Maine Woods

I was given, A Year In The Maine Woods, a while back. I finally decided to start reading it last night. I was up till midnight reading it. I couldn't put it down. Great book about a man who wants to escape it all and does it in a small cabin in the Maine wilderness. In a cabin with no running water or electricity that is built out of hand-cut logs. He spend his time rediscovering nature, tracking deer, and more. This book even has some sketches in it. Just a really good book. A real surprise for me , because it is not the usual type of book that I would pick for myself.
