Ralph carried extra water in 2-Liter soda bottles; they are lightweight and
essentially free. Buy soda when on sale, drink it, and reuse the containers on
your hike. Another possibility--depending on where you live, the time you have
available, and accessibility--is to make your own water caches (bury containers
of water where you are going to go later).
Happy trails,
