Water Treater
A high-volume, gravity-powered water purifier that removes viruses in addition to bacteria and protozoa, the Lifestraw Mission (US$119.95 to 129.95) makes backcountry water safe to drink. Compact, lightweight and easy to use, it comes in two sizes—five or 12-litres—and requires no chemicals, batteries or moving parts. Simply fill up the bag with any available water, hang it and wait for the water to pass through the filter.
