Portable watering container?? Any ideas?

Does anyone know where I can buy a portable watering container that I can backpack about a mile to where my plants are to be growing next year? Just planning on getting everything together before hand.
Would love to find one that holds up to 5 gallons.
Please advise if you know of any for sale!

Thanks!

They sell canvas backpacks that hold 5 gal buckets. You can also consider a 4 gallon backpack sprayer. I have one of those but I haven't tried it out yet.

I won't plant anywhere I can't get to with my ATV

Thanks I'll check around and see who sells them.

try trapping supply.....peace

just get a good pack. and place garbage bag a thick one in side a pillow sheet that is smaller then the in sid eof your pack just alittle. this helps with keeping the water from goin to the bottom and hurting your lower back. grand pop showed me that one.

Camping world, they have the big bladders that you fill and hang from a tree to get warm for showering.
They should hold at least 3-5 gals., and have a handle too.
Also already have a hose attached.

making a water trap with reservoir this is the way i would go . but if you have to hump water ide say get a alice pack frame with straps and kidney belt rig it up so you can secure a j can to it and should be good to go just remember that 5 gals is about 45lb plus equipment.

8.345404 lbs/gallon H2O X 5 = 41 pounds in water weight alone. Use this winter weight training. I've guerrilla grown in the US desert southwest many years and lugged a lot of water. Your trail will give you away to local kids.

Almost forgot - go to a forest supply or disposal or whatever and ask for a "piss pump". 5 gallon backpack with a hose and an adjustable wand sprayer that you pressurize by pumping. I always sat at the very back of the fire truck and grabbed a Pulaski at forest fires to keep from lugging one of the bastards.
