Water: Climbers will be expected to treat water (some of the larger containers will be treated/ boiled by Alpine Ascents) that they use in there water bottles during the climb. You should be prepared to add potable water pills or liquid drops (see gear list) to your drinking water. You may also want to bring some drink mix for flavor.

On the mountain, we have the staff purify all cold drinking water with 2% iodine solution. This goes into 20 gallon containers which they bring water to you in, before it goes into your water bottle. All water for hot drinks and cooking is, of course, boiled.
