In this video, I will be going through the methods and equipment I use to make river and lake water safe to drink.

There are several ways to purify water, some straight forward, some that involve using expensive gear, some fast, some slower and some not covered in this this video, but the outcome is the same - water that is safe to drink!

I hope you enjoy the video,

Thanks for watching.
