We went elk hunting near Kalispell MT a few years back.

He luckily recovered and now he don't drink the "natural" water anymore. We boiled it from then on...….he only drank bottled water lol

The bottle in the cage, I need to replace it. The spout gets funky and you can't clean them.

The rest that go in the panniers, easy to clean as they are not bicycle bottles. I carry two 48 oz bottles, a 32 oz bottle, two 18 oz bottles, and 4 Gatorades. Then at lunch time I'm hunting down somewhere I can fill them all up again.
