This group sure does seem pretty on top of things as far as finding quality gear. I was wondering, what do you have set up to carry your water in for your "go bag, get home bag, BOB, whatever you call yours".

First, I was thinking that a simple Camel Bak would be ideal for *me* because I have so many of them laying around since hubby is military. Lately, tho, I have been thinking it might be a good idea to consider something that is multi use. A container that I could also heat water and maybe even cook in. I try to keep my go bag as light as possible, so what kind of gear would you intelligent folks recommend? Is it safe to heat stainless steel water bottles?

I really like the idea of a container that I can use to collect water, heat water (yes, my go bag has a couple packets of instant coffee, that vice has high priority for me, morale is important too!).

Maybe there is even some sort of equipment that is like an all in one combo set? Something with a water container and maybe a small cup or pot that can be used in a fire to heat food items? So, basically, what do you use? Links and personal reviews are appreciated.
