Not sure how mobile you want to be. I dry camped for 6 months one mile away from the nearest road.
I set up one of those 10X20 tents and put gutters on it and collected rain water into a big tank.
I never ran out of water and at the end of the season I had to dump an almost full tank.

We had all the water we could use and MORE!
