What are the different methods to purify water? Great resource. We were always told to boil for 10 minutes when I was a young backpacker, and that seemed ridiculous. |

What are the vitamin considerations for extended backpacking @furtive, absolutely true for 15 days, but for the first few days out or after a resupply it is reasonable as a supplement. |

What are the vitamin considerations for extended backpacking You are incorrect. I did read the question and I spent a mere two sentences in a long response to the worthy response that multi-vits are nothing to avoid before giving many other options. |

What essential items should go in a small first aid kit? I'm just saying that you should have it on you if you are doing something dangerous. From a lifesaving perspective, there is no item more important. |

Do iodine water treatment tablets have negative effects? Chlorine is also a little harmful... General bactericides kill cells. A ban by Europe or California can be encouraged by politics or lobbying as easily as by science. |

Where are good places to look for water sources when I have run out on a multi-day hike? Where specifically? It may make a difference. |
