I don't think i saw a container that can be used to boil water in case the water isn't clean. But I do agree with clothing and knife being up there in importance. If you did mention the container, then I apologize.

The only time I ever got lost was when I refused to believe my compass.
(I thought it was being effected by some metallic object on my person.)
I vowed to never again set off through the woods without a compass, and also,.....never to doubt it.
