Re: [Paddlewise] Water Filters PUR and Katadyn

Hi Chuck,
About your PUR filter, I think I recently read in Outdoor Magazine gear
review  that one or more of the filters PUR made were sold to Katadyn
who was now making them.  Here is a link to Katadyn's site that shows
two of their filters that used to be made by PUR.

Perhaps the "Guide" filter is a renamed "Explorer".  The "Hiker kept the
same name.

Regards,
Bob
