I'm in the early stages of a planning a late-spring weekend in the backcountry with my 18-month-old son. For myself, I normally I rely on a chlorine dioxide water treatment, but for this trip I want to find the most reliable method possible. I do have other filter-type options, but of course space/weight is at major premium.
Can anyone offer insight about the safety of various treatment options for small children/babies?
For our peace of mind we carry the l lb First Needs Deluxe and have never had a problem with it. I personally cannot use the iodine tablets either.
Here is a link with some info about Chlorine and young ones.
