Edit TLDR lightest set up filtering silt and organics for those times when there's no escape:

- numerous examples online of filters jamming in a day, others having no issues

- Solution I settled on: 2L Platy soft bag to clarify water in using PACL water wizard flocculant. Added weight is 0.3 oz (swap out 1L Platy for 2L) + 5mL dropper bottle for PACL (8g?) and takes no extra room. Turn upside down to drain floc. Filter with quickdraw

- anal bonus round: pour from 2L platy into a dirty water smart bottle through a lightload towel in the cut off corner of a ziploc as a funnel, to catch stragglers

-----------------------------------------------original question->

I plan to spend more time in the Rockies where sometimes the only available water source is loaded with fine silt that'll eventually jam a filter (like one site last year in Yoho).

For you locals in mountain regions, what's your lightest and quickest set up for filtering out glacial flour and silt?

This video seems the best, using water wizard .…
