And you carry lots of water on your saddle and a plastic bag you can use to turn your helmet into a water bowl for sharing that water with your horse, if need be.
Lynn, what a good idea. I was going to carry four water bottles (two for me and two for my horse) but I've never been able to find anything he would drink out of. The helmet might work. I've tried a collapsable canvas bowl. I suppose like many other things, I should have pre-taught drinking from odd containers. My daughter's old horse will drink from her cupped hands and her new mare is a terrific drinker - eater too. Those are my two favorite attributes for an endurance horse I think. Mine pees on command, though, and that helps to drop his heart rate in vet checks. Nancy
