Just an added note on water filtering. From my backpacking days I want to make sure we're protected against giardia and cryptosporidium. CDC says you need water filtering to an absolute 1 micron (absolute not nominal so all the pores in the filter are no more than 1 micron) and/or a rating of NSF 53 or NSF 58.
Here's the CDC guidance on Crypto from https://www.cdc.gov/parasites/crypto...o/filters.html.
Guidance is the same for Giardia: https://www.cdc.gov/healthywater/dri...e/giardia.html
That's why I'm going for something that can handle these.
Happy camping!
