Nothing could survive filtration plus boiling.

If you do any backpacking, I highly recommend one of the new ceramic filters. Good investment for your 72-hr kit also. Once it gets hard to pump (due to clogging), you just sand off the outer skin of the ceramic filter and you are good to go again. Great filters.
