Pumping water at Indian Springs

I refill all my containers: four 1.5-litre water bottles, two-litre Camelbak, and 10-litre MSR water bag, all of which weighs almost 40 pounds when full! There will be no water at today's destination: Devil's Playground.

The high level of particulate matter in this tiny stream requires that I clean my MSR water filter five times while filtering water due to clogging.
