So many different ways to do this. Personally I use a CNOC 2 liter bladder with a Sawyer filter and keep two SmartWater bottles for the filtered water. Good luck on the hike!
Yes. We have two SmartWater bottles. We buy one with a black label and one with a blue label. Tne blue one is always used for clean water and the black one is always used for dirty water. We fill the dirty bottle from the stream and then connect a Sawyer Squeeze water filter and then squeeze the dirty water through the filter into the clean bottle.

Non-hiker question-When you fill up bottles from the streams, I’m assuming you use some sort of purifier or filter?
