Obtaining Safe Drinking Water in Colorado

As I have discovered many times, water is not always readily available in the wilderness areas.  Knowing where to search is key.  Also, when you are lucky enough to find water it is highly recommended to filter your water for safe drinking.

Some discussions we will have in our class about water:

  • Choosing a water purifier for your environment
  • Boiling water at high altitudes
  • Finding water in dry conditions
  • Following animal tracks to a water source
  • How much water is needed
  • How long can you survive without water
