[QUOTE="dmmorris, post: 51333, member: 8647"] I usually use Camelback bladders. I love the immediate access to water via the valve tube. However, for this trip I too am concerned about keeping the bladder dry and clean as needed for a 5 wk trek versus a weekend of camping. While at REI last Saturday, I perused the Platypus "water bottles." They look great. However, their benefit is to decompress as they empty but do they need cleaning/drying out as the bladders do? If so, the only advantage seems to be easy access for refilling?? In addition, how clean is the water ? Do people take liquid drops in case of water quality concerns? Anyone out there taking electrolytes to help with the heat and dehydration issues? Grazie~ Denise [/QUOTE]
