There are water purrification tablets that you can buy at most sporting stores that kill the micro bacteria in un purified water. You can also make a ground filter by placeing soil on a pice of fabric above a water container and pouring whater through it, it may not seem like a good idea, but it gets most of the hazards out of it if you are desprate.
