Has anyone figured out how to pump water into a gatorade bottle using the MSR Mini Works? I am planning a thru hike of the AT. I do not want to carry the weight of a Nalgene bottle, but I really like my MSR Mini Works.

Thanks

I do it, it's really not to bad , just takes a little practice. Another option is to put a short piece of tubing on the filter outlet (same diameter as the pick up tube) and stick that in the bottle

+1 on the tubing , you can also get an old Gatorade cap and drill a small hole in it the size of the tubing and put the tubing through and use it that way when filling to keep the hose from coming out of the bottle
