Planning to travel along in June/July. Have GQ 4.2 diesel patrol. Is a
snorkel absolutely necessary for crossings if rainfall remains normal for this time of year.Same applies for road to
kalumburu.

G'day Cloughie
June/July wont (shouldn't) be a problem with water crossings(unless you take a wrong turn on the Ivanhoe or simular).
As Hanson did say, a
snorkel is worth its weight in our dusty envirnoment as too are regular checks and cleaning of filters.
As always if not sure about a crossings depth, it should be checked first. A very opportune time for a ciggie and a cold drink while the handbrake checks out the water I always say!!
Cheers WAL
