How much H2O do you carry?

[grizzlyadams]

2 liters and a katadyn filter.

If water sources are available a 3L camelbak filled to 2L and my Katadyn.
If water sources aren't available 3L in the pack and two 1L nalgenes.
I drink a ton of water especially while elk hunting in the steep stuff.

Try carrying dehydrated water. It's much lighter :-)

[HunterStrait]

2-3 bottles of water when hunting in the tucannon area.

[Stein]

Never enough.

[splashcaster]

Never enough.

 

64 oz + filter...plus a big 5 gallon of spring water back at camp when possible

I also tend to load up at the truck. I'll suck down a large Gatorade on the drive to the trail head. Its easier to carry the water in my belly.

This really works well for me also, I try to pre-hydrate and it seems I need less water through the day. For scouting this summer I have been taking 100oz and filter and it was working great until I set my pack down and ripped the big bite on the mouthpiece. Felt something wet while glassing and looked down and saw all my water on the trail.
