Post Trip Checklist
What to do after a trip is over
You’ve survived the hike/paddle/cook/camp/weather from the trip this weekend. What should you do now? Aside from applying those skills you practice/learned to future trips, there are several quick things that you may need to do.
To disinfect your Platypus filtration system, fill it with a solution of unscented household bleach and water, using a concentration of 2-5 drops per liter of water. Close and swirl for 10 seconds. Leave filled for 15 minutes. Filter solution through any filters and/or hoses, then rinse system (including filters and hoses) three times with hot water. Let air dry.
