One of these
I've been assured and doubly re-assured that after using one of these on your water source, it is, in many cases cleaner than your normal tapwater. I even mailed MSR and asked if it removed Leptospirosis (weils disease). The very knowledgable young man in my local branch of Nevisport told me that "they have to be field serviced by the grunts in the US army so were made with ease of use in mind" his words not mine. I think it'll be good for those 2 to 3 day sessions out in the sticks with no water source within miles, the fens for example. I was also told that a 3 min rolling boil would do for tea or coffee or cooking and that buying a filter was overkill on my part.
