    Default Storing a Sawyer

    Susan at Sawyer said to put 1 cap of bleach in a liter of water. Put that in your dirty water bag, let it sit a couple of minutes to sanitize that. Then run the bleach water through your filter, might as well attach your water bladder and sanititize that also. Then you might want to wipe down your sleeping pad and anything else with what's left over.

    The sawyer squeeze bags say to let the bleach water sit for 1 hour in the bag. I would go by that.

    And, what or how do you use your sleeping pad that might warrant being sterilized before its next use? . . . No, please don't answer that.
    I'm not lost. I'm exploring.
