For tent based camping, should I stock up on collasible cateens? (I have a ton of these from the service), or the more solid, old fashioned aluminum canteens? (Old Army and round trail type): I have a number of them, too. Also- for the trail, I really prefer a solid canteen, what is the dependqability of the "bite" resevoir pastic bag types? I had experience with those at the end of my reserve career, but was never fond of them.:thumbup:Thanks-y'all.

the colapsable ones seem like less weight

I use 1 nalgene that attaches to my filter and then either a platypus or camelbak. The aluminum bottles are nice and sturdy, but having said that, I've been using camelbaks for years and have never had one rupture. plus when the plastic ones are empty they take up no space.

I had a few round type aluminum and the straps broke on both,to me they suck....I would go with nalgene type containers....or the army plastic canteens 1 & 2 L versions
