What's the orange rectangle at the top next to the water bottles?

Also, probably a dumb question so I apologize for my ignorance in advance:

Would a lifestraw be something worth taking?

The orange thing is my sleeping pad. I prefer a foam mat to to a blowup pad.

And totally understandable question! I'm bringing a sawyer squeeze water filter. It connects to the top of a squeezable bag or a smart water bottle if your bag breaks.

Cool, I'd never heard of Sawyer squeeze before now. Thanks for the reply!

They're fucking great. You attach a little pouch they gice and squeeze through the filter Vastly better than lifestraws. I've never actually used my lifestraws because the sawyer squeeze is so much better.
