I have just completed the Darling River Run in our new van and am very pleased with the new purchase! The simplicity suspension was well worth the investment as nothing moved in the van. We managed to top up some water at Lightening Ridge (rainwater tank at a park) but other than that could not source any drinking water to top up the tanks. We managed to get home without having to top up as we had some drinking water in the car (in 12 and 10 ltr containers). My question is, how to travellers top up drinking water particularly when travelling west where water is scarce (usually) and not drinkable. Do people fit water filters or use tablets after boiling bore/river/creek water. I am interested to know for future reference and have not seen any posts on this topic.Feedback and suggestions much appreciated.

By the way, the DRR is fantastic and it was pleasing to see water in Menindee and the Murrumbidgee (around Wagga). Highly suggest those contemplating to go for it and enjoy!
