Grayl UltraPress water filter and purifier bottle

Grayl's UltraPress water filter and purifier bottle is a perfect addition to your everyday adventures and travels. Small enough to fit in a carry-on bag or backpack, the UltraPress guarantees safe, good tasting drinking water while limiting the use of wasteful disposable plastic bottles. Unlike common straw filters, the Grayl Ultrapress purification process removes all waterborne pathogens including viruses, and unlike UV purifier devices. Grayl also filters the water so it's absolutely clear and taste-free. It requires no setup time and makes clean, safe drinking water from hotel sinks, sketchy spigots, rivers, and lakes.

step 22 QUOLL CUBE HD PACKING CUBES

When it's time to get seriously organized for some heavy-duty travel, it's time to get some Quoll Cubes. Ultralight packing cubes are great when you are packing your underwear and counting ounces for your trip to the top of Everest … but when you are hitting the trails for some legit exploring you need gear to last the test of time. While you can certainly store your underooskies in a Quoll Cube, you can also store your favorite set of tools. Try to do that with those other packing cubes and see how quickly they fail.
