The warmer weather brings about unique challenges to campers, hikers, or any other outdoors sports participants. When it’s hot outside, it is very important to stay hydrated – keeping your water intake high. A readily available supply of emergency drinking water is a critical component to an enjoyable and safe outdoors experience.
The most important source of replenishing fluids in your body is water. Drinks with high sugar or caffeine content, such as sodas or coffee, can actually be detrimental if your body becomes dehydrated (not enough fluid). Water is the body’s most natural source of hydration.
