During hard work on the fireline, firefighters
can lose up to a liter of sweat an hour. If
they don't replace those fluids, they won't be able to think clearly
or work as hard. The
tech tip "Hydration 
Strategies
for Firefighters" (0851–2324–MTDC)
looks at some of the benefits and drawbacks of
standard water bottles and the
newer sipping systems.
For more information about hydration strategies, contact project leaders Joe Domitrovich (phone: 406-829-6809; e-mail: jdomitrovich@fs.fed.us) or Brian Sharkey (phone: 406–329–3989; e-mail: bsharkey@fs.fed.us).
