[QUOTE="The Green Wanderer, post: 349029, member: 784"] It depends a bit on how tall you are too, I started with a long one then added a short nozzle to it. Im average height about 5'9" so that was an okay height for me. After a few creeks that had holes too deep or water too deep in some cases I decided to make a longer attachment for it which works most of the time. The downside now is that the longer one even without attachments still sticks out the top of my pack whereas if id started with a short one it would fit inside neatly but would limit how deep I could go. Have thought about making a short one out of pvc to lighten the load when testing in a new area too- maybe ill get to that project one day :P Hope this helps, TGW. [/QUOTE]
