Cool. Yeah I haven't used it since that trip. Do you have to worry about having it out in the cold temporarily to filter water as well? For example, if I fill up a water reservoir and wanted to keep the filter inline with the hose so I can just drink out of it, is it a bad idea to do that on cold days? I assume that is a bad idea. Maybe I'll stick to using it on warmer days instead and when it's cold just bring all my own water or filter it into the reservoir so it is only out in the cold for short periods of time.
You need to worry about anytime I can freeze. You can filter 33° water just fine, but lets say it's 25° out...it will eventually freeze.
I'll still use it right now, for example, where it's 45-50 during the day and 25-35 at night. I'll sleep with it to be safe. Any colder and there's usually snow to melt or water sources are frozen anyway.
