What is your fresh drinking water supply? It didn't appear you could bring in enough water to last for your expedition, but I would not think the river water would be potable.

Hi,Our fresh water supply comes from a nearby stream. The water is moving
and we have been drinking it unfiltered since we have arrived with no
ill effects. I was surprised to learn before coming here that this
would be the standard way of getting water here, but have felt fine and
have had plenty of it to drink. While in the field we basically stop at
any stream and fill our water bottles and that has worked out fine as well.
Drinking with the fishes,

Thanks, Claude! It's good to know some places on earth still have good water in nature, besides Poland Spring, of course!
