Thanks for the backflush tip, seems simpler than Sawyer's "Fill and close supply bag, connect filter and press bag" routine. Have only needed to do that a few times, but learned to get on it before flow completely stops. And backflush before storing your filter until next season (ask me how I know).

Filling the 10L bag can be more challenging than the Sawyer supply bag with the handle you can dip into the water, but a cookpot scoop has been good enough so far. A dinky stream or weed-choked shoreline is always a test, no matter what I'm toting. An added design feature I assume is intentional--the bag outlet is a couple inches from the bottom. Fine particles can settle out below the outlet so as to not get into the filter.

Now that companies seem to be using standard hoses and connectors, mix-and-match possibilities are limitless. That only took a couple decades. smile
