Camp Filter for a Build Week Without a Well
The crew still has to drink.

Why this comes up
The crew still has to drink. Haul the water. Filter it in camp. Do not fill the crock from a ditch.
What to check on the map first
County GIS lines are assessment maps. They are not a survey, and a product will not redraw them.
Open Platbookmapper and choose the state. The directory sends you to the county viewer. Match the parcel ID before you trust a pin on an aerial photo.
A tool that matches the job
Shop the Gravity water filter when that is the job in front of you. Haul the water. Filter it in camp. Do not fill the crock from a ditch.
The limit
Filter water you hauled from a known tap, or water a lab has already tested. A steel crock does not make creek water safe.
Match the parcel ID on the tax bill before you shop for the field kit.
Not a survey. County GIS and tax parcel maps are assessment and planning layers. They are not a substitute for a recorded plat, deed, or licensed survey.
