Sawyer Products SP129 Squeeze Water Filtration System with Two 32-Oz Pouches, Straw & Adapter
The Sawyer Squeeze is the default answer for a reason: a 0.1-micron hollow-fiber filter that screws onto its pouches (or a standard soda bottle), weighs about 3 ounces, and lets you drink on the spot with no fuel, no wait, and no chemical aftertaste. It nails the two threats that actually put North American hikers on the ground — Giardia and Cryptosporidium — plus waterborne bacteria. The honest caveat: like all microfilters it does not remove viruses, which is a low risk in remote U.S. backcountry but a real one when treating questionable water abroad. Match the method to the threat.
