Has anyone used a water bottle with filter such as this - Katadyn Exstream Purifier Bottle? Any comments on pros and cons?

This question came up before (see post #36 and #40). The patches were both the same except for red "AMC" on 'all season' and white "AMC" on winter. Some said the sizes were different for theirs but mine are the same size.

Intermission: Why is it we drive on a 'parkway' and park on a 'driveway'?:confused::D:D Back to your regularly scheduled discussion. (Which is great by the way.)

Welcome to the club of those who finished on Zealand! Congratulations.

Only problem with that suggestion is no footprints. Porcupine have a cute waddle but you would see their prints and the scrapping of their quills along the side of the track.

Depends on what part of the "Lakes Region". I just measured 9" on my deck and it's coming down heavy. Last storm (last Sun-Mon) we were predicted to get a couple inches. I woke up to and shoveled 18 1/2"! It was reported that New Durham got hit hard with ~17". They didn't come a few doors down...

Though called 'knife's edge' there is never a real narrow, fall off, area. It can be quite nice in winter as long as the winds out of King Ravine let you continue.

I'll probably regret posting this link but my husband sent it to me. realmenwearkilts We both like this one: "WHAT'S WORN UNDER YOUR KILT?" Nothing is worn, everything is in perfect working order.

I shoveled about 6"+ of heavy, wet snow (cement) yesterday. It stuck to the snowshoes, dripped and dropped from the trees so I only trekked around my yard for a bit. Last night brought another 5" of more powdery snow. Good snowsho'n today :D :D

:D Yes, I may find it too long - but it is easier to buy it long and make it shorter than to buy it short and make it longer.

I settled on this one for now. North Face Horizon Utility Skirt. Time will tell if I like it.

I just may give that a try especially for trail running. :D But I’m looking at it from the point of a skirt doesn’t expose your back side like dropping your shorts (ever been caught mooning? :o). Also most underwear has enough stretch to pull aside rather then down if you have a skirt on. Seems...

I like all the responses. I notice several refer to ‘skorts’. Unless I’m missing something, that kind of defeats the purpose of a skirt for the ‘bio break’. Aren’t they just shorts with extra material to look like a skirt? Seems like too much material. I think a sarong might be too much...

I’m seriously considering hiking in a skirt and have these skirts in mind. http://www.backcountryoutlet.com/outlet/EXO0378/Ex-Officio-ExCursion-Skirt-Womens.html http://www.backcountryoutlet.com/outlet/LLE0154/Lol-Danube-Skirt-Womens.html I’d be interested in hearing any experiences pro or...

For all the hassle of carrying and using some kind of container I find it quicker to just drop, squat and go. If MadRiver can hike in a kilt, why can't I hike in a skirt. Stand or squat...what could be easier? Now to find the right skirt. That's another thread.

I love it!!

I just received a copy of the printed version. Real nice. I hope Trail Bandit is taking orders or has a place to sell them.

I have used something similar for many years and it does work for many uses.
