Description

Wildland firefighters, who work long hours in extreme terrain and weather conditions, must be properly hydrated.

Some crews have been experimenting with different bladder systems and water bottles (i.e., Nalgene), other than Government Services Administration (GSA) canteens. The National Technology and Development Program of the Forest Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, was tasked with determining if the new hydration systems should be included in the national cache system to augment (or replace) the standard issue canteens.
