I use this utensil and this bowl. Both take up very little space in my backpack.
(Yes, I know the bowl is marketed for "pets" but it holds human food just fine and is collapsable. It meets my needs, even as a non-pet.)
Wow, that is expensive.
A non-spill travel bowl with a floating centre section (which is designed to prevent water sloshing about when the bowl is in your car) does about the same job and they're about a tenner.
...they were originally designed as travel bowls but as a side effect they only allow access to a small quantity of water at a time which stops the dog making a mess. The level of water available remains constant as the floating section drops down in the bowl.

We use these pads (http://www.amazon.com/Pack-Reusable-Washable-Housebreaking-Training/dp/B00BOVB4IG/ref=sr_1_5?s=pet-supplies&ie=UTF8&qid=1420016402&sr=1-5&keywords=washable+pee+pads) for Bonnie, as well as the throw away kind for her bedding. She doesn't bunch it up very much, but the other ones are quite heavier and your kitty might not bunch them up so bad. I know they sell less expensive travel/crate ones that might be worth a try!

Thank you! Julius looks like he's meant to be out there. Nice pup you got there!
I ordered the vest and pouches separately off Amazon. Here is the vest https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B010V4K7SY/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s02?ie=UTF8&th=1 and a coule of the pouches https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B003EH1DHK/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1 https://smile.amazon.com/gp/product/B00WEL9ASG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o02_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
And for food and water, I have a couple bowls like these https://smile.amazon.com/Collapsible-Awakelion-Foldable-Travel-Container/dp/B06X3QN513/ref=sr_1_21?ie=UTF8&qid=1500911436&sr=8-21&keywords=dog%2Bbowl%2Bfor%2Bcamping&th=1
Cooper carries his own food and water and anything else I can fit in his pack. The only thing I carry for him is his sleeping bag.
Edit: Here is a GIF of Cooper with his pack in action! https://media.giphy.com/media/pLNmpJjCr7K1i/giphy.gif
Not a fountain, but this water bowl has been completely spill proof even when it flips. It's even flipped over in the car and didn't spill.

My best friend's pup had this issue with her water. She got a spill proof water bowl and hasn't had any issues since!
I used my pail for the dog that liked to play in water, worked great but he wasn't slopping water from his mouth. Attaching it to the wall took all the fun out of playing with it.
I've always seen a no spill bowl suggested for sloppy drinkers. On the order of this thing but you'd want something larger and deeper. You'd still have to put it on something like a boot tray lined with fabric to catch drips.
Those with smaller dogs often use water drippers similar to the ones used for small mammals. Perhaps you could screw the working end to a much larger bottle. The 400 ml bottle on the linked one is definitely not suitable for your big girl!
Or install a dog door and keep water outside......
I'm wondering if maybe a no-spill water bowl, like this, would help?
We also have a two-pronged approach. A tower of drawers in a closet similar to THIS, but taller/more drawers, and a go-bag that sits near the door similar to THIS.
Maybe try a "non-spill" water bowl, like a road refresher?
I have an older one that Premier made. They're new one is too big for me. I don't have it, but the Planet Dog one seems more like the one I have. Its just a pouch for treats with a cinch top. This one by Kurgo looks nice as well.

I use these they work great and come in different sizes.
http://www.amazon.com/dp/B0081XIFWS/ref=sr_ph?ie=UTF8&qid=1405781469&sr=1&keywords=dog+backpack comes in 4 different colors and 4 different sizes as well. They also have them at petco and petsmart.
I bought her a water dish as well to match.

We have that exact kind of pack. They do make cloth collapsible bowls that will fit in the zippered compartment. I got mine at a local petstore called PetLife but Amazon also sells them
This one is really similar to the one we have http://www.amazon.com/Folding-Collapsible-Travel-Water-Army-Green/dp/B006UVSJN8/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1420486294&sr=8-4&keywords=collapsable+dog+bowls
Congrats on the gift & thanks for sharing! How generous! =)
First, on every hike: nature calls, and there's not always a potty. Usually just a rock or a tree. With these tissues, you can avoid "eco guilt".

Wash up:
Mother's Therapy Organics Hand Sanitizer with Clip
& always have a hankie or kleenex. Cos you need them. No need to link that. You have them.
If you have pets & you bring them with you, a portable water bowl is an absolute.
Merrel Hiking Shoe/Boot. Your shoe or boot is your preference & depends on the trail, but you will ALWAYS need to replace them every year, at least, if you hike often. The group I hike with favors Merrels. I linked the Amazon Merrel store cos I'm not sure of your trail conditions, climate, shoe/boot preference etc. A good hiking shoe is always at the top of my list when it comes to gear.
Rope. Cos once when we were hiking my dogs missed the trail and jumped down a steep cliff. We had to rescue them. A rope sure would have come in handy!

Honestly, I prefer to carry a back pack with my things and really don't like the camelpaks. They're a pain in the ass to keep clean. I love my reusable wide-mouthed BPA-free water bottle. There's 2 sizes. They're perfect. I use the small one all the time, but the bigger one might be handy for longer hikes.

Most trails have clean water sources, but if not you may want a water bottle with built-in filtration such as Seychelle.
Happy caching & hiking! I love hiking! It's one of my favorite things!
Here's some pics of my favorite hike earlier this year.
Peace & Love
We don't live in Colorado (yet, we actually just started to apply for jobs out there and hope to move to the Denver-area later this year. We've already mapped out the drive and done some brainstorming about where we'll stay on the road since from where we live (Pittsburgh), it's about a 24 hour drive, so let me know if you need any help on the research we've done on that), but do camp (in OH, PA, and MD), hike, and road trip with our 1.5 year old Golden Retriever pretty frequently when the weather is warm. I'll discuss what we have for our dog's set ups.
Road Trips
Camping
Hiking
Additionally, for camping, I'd strongly recommend doing some camping training in your home before taking your dog camping for real. We set our tent up in our living room and slept in it at home a couple of times with our dog just to let him get a feel for what things would be like before we went outside camping for the first time. Lots of treats were involved to show him that being calm in the tent was a good thing. Also start small. The first time we took our dog camping was at a campsite in Ohio about 20 minutes from our parents' house. We made sure it was just one night and that we had an easy-out in case Summit wasn't ready and started to freak out or disrupt the other people camping. Everything went perfectly but if Summit hadn't been having a good time, we could have quickly packed up and left and slept at either of our parents' houses where he would have felt more comfortable.
In terms of hiking, also start small. Start with shorter, easier hikes that take maybe 30-60 minutes. Then work up to longer, steeper, more challenging hikes.
Finally, for road tripping, especially in places that you don't know as well, I strongly recommend taking a look at bringfido.com and dogfriendly.com. These websites will allow you to easily look up different dog-friendly establishments (such as restaurants, hotels, parks, activities, etc.) in the areas that you are traveling.
for the water bowl get something like this:

hard to take apart to clean but it solved my problems.
Some treats or a small bag of food so she can eat or have a snack. Snacks may come in handy to get her in and out of the carrier easily. A water bottle to give her something to drink. Collapsible Water Bowls would be handy. A lint roller is always useful in case you want to get fur off of your outfit. ;) And poop bags of course..well for the obvious. A blanket in case she might want to lay on one.
This is when we got Ahri. :)
I tried to spoil her from the beginning. lol
Hi!
Thanks again for your help in getting started! I ended up doing a groundbird pack (see my post history for it in action) and we've been practicing hikes for a while now. We have a few questions for our summer through hike:
What do you do for water on the trail? Have you used these sorts of bowls?
I was thinking of just setting her on my old one of these cut up for sleeping.
Our biggest questions is for sure about transportation. How did you guys get to the trail head / back from the trail end? That's the hardest logistics item that's bugging us.
Anyway, thanks!
