Great thread. I have been giving some serious thought to all my preparedness subjects, and water is at the top of the list. I'm making notes of a number of local sources, and methods of transport. If need be, I'll make some late night pick-ups, and bring them back to my home and treat and store them in clean containers for drinking then.
At this point in time, I have a handful of creeks, a major river, and an old cistern at an old abandoned farm. I was out doing some hiking on the old farm property one day, and happened across it quite by accident. Once I removed the lid, I was surprised to see that the water was really clear, and I was able to see to around 4-5' before diffraction took over.
All of these sources are within walking distance of my home, and all of them have a couple of ways to and from them, to here, that are pretty stealthy. By the way, a real good way to transport a couple of cans of water for any long distance, is to get one of those two-wheeled carts that hunters use to transport their large game kills through the woodlands to their vehicles, or their hunting camps.
