Originally planned to use a filter to purify water on the trail, but leaving in February means there will likely be quite a few cold nights early on. Filters don't like freezing weather, so I'm not so sure one would survive.
Aqua Mira drops are popular with thru-hikers. Since the product is rather expensive and not always available along the trail, I'd have to rely on mail drops for a reliable resupply.
I've settled on good old-fashioned chlorine bleach. It's cheap. It's available along the trail. It's easy to store and use.
