Here's a tip for those with a bugout plan;
Instead of lugging a lot of water in a backpack just take a handkerchief or clean cloth of any type, and a baggie full of charcoal, something found in the remains of any fireplace or campfire. Scrape and pound the charcoal to a powder, cone up the hanky, pour some charcoal powder into the cloth, then pour the dirty water through the cone and let it drain through to a container you can drink from. The charcoal will filter it, the kerchief will filter it further, and what's left is clean drinking water.
Simple, easy, and dirt cheap to do.
