For years, I've been recommending that campers bring "instant water" with them. We can't live without water, and carrying a small packet of dehydrated water can be a life-saver. Of course, finding a supply of clean water to rehydrate it could be a problem in certain areas. For that type of trip, I recommend bringing several gallons of water to activate the powder.
Jerryc41, while this is a bit off topic, I had to show you the appropriate companion item to you dehydrated water. I keep one in my backpack, can not be too careful.
