I just got back from a weekend in the backcountry checking out a new area. Haven’t been to this side of the wilderness but in other places I’ve never had an issue finding running water. I came across the only 2 springs on this particular ridge system and couldn’t get any water from the first one. Water was basically a mud hole with bugs swimming around. I went downhill from the spring and couldn’t find a trickle. The second spring had more standing water and somebody put a piece of PVC into the mountain about 10 yards lower that had a constant flow.
How would you guys go about collecting water from these sources? I’m running a Grayl as my primary bottle and filter and have Hydrapak bladders for daily (3L) and camp storage (6L). I also have hollow trekking poles but I didn’t have any luck with that method.
