This Water Filter Is Amazing... (Sawyer Micro Squeeze Review)

In this video, I review the Sawyer Micro Squeeze water filter, which I've been using for the past nine months as my main water filter in all of my overnight hikes. In addition to sharing all of my personal experience, I also test the Sawyer Micro Squeeze in dirty water, show you how to use it, and give my own personal tips that I learned over time.
