I sat in my 4th floor office at the Taft Building on the corner of Hollywood and Vine. The day was sweltering and the 1927 building felt like a sweat box.

I’m currently using the MSR MiniWorks EX and it’s a great pump filter. It delivers a lot torque on the lever and can fill up an empty Nalgene in just a few minutes. However, it’s relatively expensive ($90 on REI), large, and weighs a ton by ultralight standards. 460 grams (about on...
