Thread: Carrying Water . . . . . what's your prefered method?

I use the bladder out of cask wine boxes. They fit over 3 litres in them but i only fill them as much as required to cut down on weight.
They squash down to bugger all when empty and they are suprisingly durable. and they dont slosh round in the pack and can take any shape required when there is limited room in the pack!

I'm gonna give that one a crack the next time I walk in for a overnight or two. Cheers!

Surely it would be a far more exciting hunt if you just drank the bladder of wine????

While hunting I use a hydro bladder.
If I can I will leave the bladder empty and drink from rivers etc to reduce carrying the excess weight. When leaving the last water supply I will then fill the bladder and drink from that.

Forgot to mention They also make a good pillow if you blow one up with air
