In my area grazing seems to be the biggest source of contamination. The majority of public lands here allow cows and sheep. I would not dream of drinking from any stream in these areas without boiling, filtering, or purifying.
Geeze, if I was drinking water downstream of a grazing area, I'd boil, filter AND purify the water.
