LifeStraw Go Water Filter
This one is pretty obvious: potable water is not always available in the wild and once you use up your supply, there's a chance you can get dehydrated. Lifestraw can be a literal lifesaver since it can filter out almost all harmful stuff in dirty water sources, that should give you some assurance that you're not going to die out of thirst in the wild.
