I noticed alot of people commenting on storing water. It is much easier to store a few gallons of chlorine to sanitize whatever you can find, than it is to store hundreds of gallons of drinking water. The dosage rate is 1/4 oz per 10 gallons of water. Let the chlorine dissipate and you have sanitized water.

Personally, I like a Berkey filter. My plan if it comes to this - Get creek, lake water, rain water, etc., run it through a t-shirt, boil it, run it through a Berkey. Probably don’t need the boiling step, but doesn’t hurt. Don’t have to filter through a shirt, but will make the ceramic filters last longer.
You can also build your own filter with carbon, rocks, sand and diatomaceous earth. A couple drops of chlorine.
I was thinking of building one myself. I’m just not very mechanically inclined.
