the big boi wide mouth 48oz 1.5 litre ones, I've got like 5 total of the HDPE 1.5 litres two HDPE 1 litres, which are cool cause they can handle boiling water and freezing water with no issues and two regular 1.5litres cause they look cooler and technically have a bit more capacity cause the walls are thinner.

Tent is handmade from waxed canvas sailcloth, rain gear is oiled canvas and natural rubber.
I mixed cinnamon oil into the beeswax for the tent this year, it smells amazing.

I just crush down a 1L pop bottle and then put the lid back on, making it thin and lightweight for carrying. Any is fine.

yurop here, andros brand fruit juice has a very sturdy bottle with a good wide mouth screw cap. they make excellent outdoor bottles light, cheap, reuse, tough, tight, wide mouth for easy refill, no cry when you lose one because you buy one every week.

I have one it works fairly well. When camping the small opening is a pain to refill but backpacking with a sawyer is perfect. I want to try the m!go since it has large / small caps. But it’s out of stock. There are also reports of leaking but o-rings might be a simple fix.

11/17/25(Mon)11:18:16 No.2849761 I was homeless and broke so I only used birch oil for my canvas tent (Thornhill 3x3m). It doesn't breathe as well as before but at least it's not leaking now. Collecting all that oil took an eternity kek. The tent is dark green and now it has subtle black spots on it.

I was watching youtube videos people made of their appalachian trail hikes and they ALL had smart water water bottles. It's not about the water, they were obviously repeatedly refilling them with filtered stream water. Maybe they were compatible with the filter. It was just surprising to see them using disposable water bottles.
But I would think someone would use a Nalgene.

kek can you not afford 20 dollars for a 1.5 litre bottle made of thick hdpe that can withstand freezing and boiling. You don't actually go out if you use smart bottles those are for the first 5-10 trips tops.

Leave it to the benchcamper to fearmonger about bears to someone without an appreciable bear population.
You know what I did last time I saw a bear? I was cooking and stood up and told it to fuck off. I didn't see it again that trip.

SmartWater bottles (and the CNOK Thru Bottle) are also tall and slim compared to a typical Nalgene. The former take up less space in side pockets. And of those side pockets have front access, slender bottles that taper toward the cap are a lot easier to slip back in while still wearing the backpack.

HDPE nalgene is not the soccer mom bottle you've seen; it's cheaper, less trendy, and the wide mouth curve back rectangles are beautifully efficient. It doesn't shatter, it tears.

>SAAR U EATING BY BEAR DO NOT REDEEM THE CAMPING
Oh man I guess I got eaten by a bear every night when I used vanilla scent in my tent for 5 years, or when I used apple cinnamon for 10 years before that, or plain cinnamon for 5 years before that. Guess you got me, "saar" I'll never camp again without living in terror of bears in my negligible bear population area with only one sighting of a black bear 3 hours away that was shot and eaten by a farmer. I am so scared I will now burn all my camping gear and only use chinese plastic from now on.

The smart water bottle is the default for a reason.
Durable enough, light, cheap, works with the default filter, and an ideal form factor.

01/23/26(Fri)17:07:45 No.2858693 3 season:
Cnoc bag for dirty water since it hooks right up to the filter.
Smart water bottles (and now the M!Go HDPE one I got for xmas) x2.
Gives me almost 3L of water carrying capacity, and the filter is nice since you can't accidentally spill while filling or back flushing.
Winter:
Same bag and filter. I store the filter inside my sleeping bag to keep it from freezing.
Wide mouth nalgenes. Easier to pour water into if you boil it or melt snow. Lids easier to manipulate with gloves on.
Bikepacking:
2x1.5 liter nalgenes. I strap them to cages. Usually at least one smaller on the go bottle for easy drinking.
Same filter set up.
At least one smaller bottle or cup though since inevitably you find some water fountain or faucet the taller bottle doesn't fit under.

Couldn't you... just use unscented wax? Is there anything other than the scent that it's useful for?
