We are continually amazed at the bizarre zeal to pollute your water with thyroid-stimulating iodine when, for just a few ounces, you can instantly have water that tastes like Arrowhead (a local brand in California).
We have tried PolarPure on about five outings, and it consistently gets rejected by all. We took some bottles on our last trek 24, and no one used it. Same results from our trek in '02 and all the shakedowns in between.
Main point of contention for the adults is the ability to remove solids with a filter, as compared to "colorizing" them with PolarPure. Main complaint from the kids is the taste, and the waiting. Then again, they'll drink anything that the Staff sez is good...
